What is Optrex ActiMist 2 In 1 Dry + Irritated Eye Spray?
This eye spray is a treatment for eyes that have become dry and irritated as a result of modern living, including looking at a computer screen for long hours, air conditioning, central heating, or driving. It is also suitable for older people whose eyes have become dry and are more prone to their eyes becoming dry and irritated. This spray will provide relief for up to 4 hours. It works by restoring the moisture in the eyes that have been lost due to the tear film on the eyes being reduced.
Who can use this Optrex Eye Spray?
This spray can be used by anyone who is looking for a treatment for dry and irritated eyes but doesn’t want to use eye drops that go directly onto the eyes. Anyone who is allergic to the ingredients contained in the eye spray.
Can Optrex ActiMist be used when wearing contact lenses?
Unlike other types of eye treatment, this Optrex ActiMist Eye Spray can be used when wearing contact lenses. Wearing contact lenses can cause dry and irritated eyes so restoring moisture can be important to keep wearing them.
