Nighttime Gel, by Bausch Plus Lomb, Night Time Eye Gel for Dry Eyes, Long-Lasting Relief for Irritated, Gritty, Carbomer Eye Gel, 10g

Artelac Night-time Gel is a great product to relieve dry / tired eyes. It effectively soothes and provides moisture to the eyes, in a way that lasts far longer than the traditional eye drops and soothing eye mist type products. The product comes in tube packaging, being much smaller than I thought it would be when ordering. However, it lasts a long time as a small amount is used per application. It has a short shelf life of 1.5 months after opening, for me the tube lasted around that length of time (with once daily use), so the size of the tube is not an issue really. The product is applied directly to the eyes, in the same way that eye drops are applied. However, it is a thick gel as opposed to a liquid solution. At first, this was quite odd as the gel ‘sits’ on the eyes and does not really spread throughout the eye naturally, but blinking a few times and looking around spreads the gel nicely. Saying that, vision is slightly blurred for a short while (around a minute for me) after application, nothing significant but worth noting. A slight issue is that application is a little fussier than just spraying the eye with a dry eye mist, on a few occasions I have ‘missed’ my eye and ended up dropping gel on my face! Due to the gel nature of Artelac, it soothes the eyes and prevents dry eyes for so much longer than eye drops. I have used various brands of eye drops and eye sprays, including products from Blink, Optrex and various supermarket / drugstore brands (the Tesco eye mist was surprisingly good!); this product has provided greater relief than all the others. Whereas most drops improve my dry / tired eyes for half an hour or so, Artelac lasts around 2 hours when used during the day. The product, though called a ‘night’ gel can be used throughout the day as required, as I discovered when reading the information leaflet provided (it can be used multiple times throughout the day but is marketed as a night gel due to the thicker nature and the fact that sight is blurred temporarily after using). Whilst the product is not perfect, with issues such as the blurring of eyes, awkward application and short shelf life once opened, the results are better than any of the drop / spray products I have tried. For this, I would highly recommend to those with dry eyes, particularly if more conventional products are not that effective.

I suffer from dry eyes and was told by my optician that I must use drops several times a day. I’ve now been using Artelac nightly before bed for a few months and have noticed my eyes feel moist and comfortable. This gel is far better than any of the eye drops I tried previously. If you suffer from dry eyes I recommend that you try it.

Provides long-lasting relief, better than any other products I have tried but can irritate if used too frequently. My eyes are so dry and sore I had been using this 3-4 times a day for a year but suddenly it is stinging and burning. I therefore use several other non-preservative drops (none of which are particularly effective and I have to use very frequently) then use this at night only and sometimes in the morning and after 2 weeks the irritation to this product has pretty much gone. It stings more though when my eyes are already irritated from dryness during the day but then calms down and my eyes feel soothed. Nothing else has worked as well as this so I will continue to use in moderation.

I was recently diagnosed with dry eye......sounds boring, but it is uncomfortable, especially in the morning. So I was recommended some hydrating gel. The product comes in a small tube with a long narrow nozzle, making it easier to get into your eye. Appearance, is a clear liquid, slightly thicker than water and I found that it worked to ease my dry eye prior to going to sleep almost straight away. On the first morning, I did experience a little powdery crust on my eyelashes and the second morning, there was a noticable improvement, with less dryness and crust (I know, it's a horrible word to describe it, but can't think of another) and eyes were not half as sore or itchy. There can be a little blurring at first, but blinking and rolling your eyes helps. So at this moment, I would say it's good value for money as you only need a small drop. Will continue to use and would recommend.

I've used gel eye drops at night for a long time, as I have dry eyes following surgery. I wanted something that wasn't in little individual plastic ampoules, so tried this gel. I'm happy to say that it works well for me, in fact, I think it's better than what I previously used. It's easy to apply to my eyes, and moisturises them well overnight.

3 stars because it does not work for me particularly. I need the oil based ones as I feel they have more lasting power. This just dries my eyes quicker

Brilliant stuff! I ordered this as an alternative to my usual night gel which was out of stock. I'm so glad I did too, its far superior. I use it at bedtime and since I have been using it I've had no need for eye drops at all! My eyes are more comfortable and even my vision seems better, not so light-sensitive in sunlight either. Will def continue with this.

Arrives on time, well packed and sealed, no issues so far.

Me va muy bien. Lo utilizo al irme a dormir y a veces durante el día.

Tut trockenen Augen, auch in den Wechseljahren, richtig gut. Hab, seid ich dieses Gel, vor dem schlafen gehen in die Augen gebe, keine Bindehautentzündung mehr gehabt. Absolute Kaufempfehlung!!!

Ottimo articolo consigliato dal mio oculista per la secchezza degli occhi notturna.

Lo uso già da un mese, lo metto la sera e il giorno dopo ho molto meno secchezza oculare. Per me e' ottimo dato che ho la lacrimazione azzerata.
