I have been using this product now for years and I would not be without it. Its always in my medicine cabinet along side the allergy relief drops from the same company.

I had Lasik surgery about ten years ago and have regularly suffered from dry eyes as a result, particularly at night. Over the past few months the discomfort seems to have gotten worse, perhaps from constant computer use. I have tried several eye drop brands and this one is by far the best I have found.

I was using Tears Naturale, which did an okay job, but Allergan Refresh Plus is significantly better. It not only provides better immediate relief, but it also seems to last much longer. It states that the containers are for one-time, single use, but they can be re-closed and used again. I can get about three applications out of one container. I suppose the main thing is to use them quickly once they are opened since they have no preservatives, which is a plus as most Optometrists urge you to use eye drops without preservatives.

The containers that come with Tears Naturale can also be re-closed and used multiple times and are, by the way, larger and therefore contain more fluid, but they are also less effective.

I highly recommend giving this product a try. Good price from Amazon, too.

I started getting dry eyes like 4-5 months ago. I have no idea why I started getting them but I only get them when I first wake up. They are so bad at times that I literally cant even keep my eyes open as it burns really bad trying to keep them open. I had been using Visine and it just didn't work well at all. It did give temporary relief but it didn't last long and it burned quite bad when first applying it. Your not supposed to use Visine more than 4-5 times a day and considering I was using it every 10-15 minutes for the first couple of hours in the morning...well lets just say I knew I needed to look into some different products. Thankfully this is just another case of mother knows best as my mom had been using Similasan Dry Eye Relief for years and even had a couple spare bottles for me to try out.

Anyways I tested it out that very next morning and the difference was literally stunning. Not only did it not sting my eyes when first applying it, it had an immediate effect that lasted FAR FAR longer than the Visine. On the really bad mornings I might have to put a couple more drops in an hour or so later but that is only for the really bad mornings. Most of the time a single application of Similasan will do the trick. It is also far more soothing than the Visine. My eyes actually feel good after I apply the Dry Eye relief and that just wasn't the case with the Visine. The Visine helped but it certainly wasn't soothing, at least nowhere near the level of the Similasan.

My mom purchases this from a local health store and she was paying 16.00 a bottle. I figured I would look on Amazon and sure enough they carry practically the entire Similasan line of products including the Dry Eye Relief. It was also considerably cheaper as I can now get 3 bottles for quite a bit less than it would cost to get 2 bottles at our local health shop. I believe in supporting local businesses but only if they have decent prices. In this particular case were talking about almost 8.00 more per bottle if I buy it locally. Amazon comes through once again!

The bottom line - Dry eyes can be extremely bothersome and at times very painful. I had an ex-girlfriend that had this problem and I just never realized how bad it was until I started having the problem myself. Its just awful and from what I have read, its the most common eye ailment in the US. Thankfully there are products out there like Similasan Dry Eye Relief that make this problem a thousand times more bearable. If you suffer from dry eyes then you simply must try this out especially if your currently using products like Visine. Its just a world of difference.

I for one will never use anything else ever again!

5 Stars!

We all know you shouldn't use Visine products because their "redness relief" are vasoconstrictors that work to close off the blood vessels in your eyes, which is bad for your ocular health. So what drops are best? Systane Ultra High Performance. They're easily the most expensive over the counter drops, but boy do they work. Instead of Refresh tears - gentle, but not long lasting - these drops last a few hours while clearing your vision at the same time. I use these when I wear glasses, and Systane Contacts drops when I'm wearing my contacts. I've tried several other brands, and been recommended Refresh or Systane by my eye doctor, but the best are Systane Ultra High Performance. I've heard that regular Systane drops aren't as long lasting and that Systane Long Lasting drops feel very thick and viscous, so I'll stick with the High Performance.

Eighteen months ago, I was at a point where I could no longer look at a computer screen without my eyes literally ACHING. My vision was increasingly blurred, and reading was beyond my tolerance, other than for a few moments at a time. This was serious, serious stuff, since I'm an advanced graduate student and have several hundred pages of text to read each week! I finally couldn't tolerate the pain and went in to see my optometrist -- who discovered I had significant corneal scarring from severe dry eye syndrome. Left untreated, I was destined to lose my eyesight. I was immediately scheduled for two corneal surgeries, and I was prescribed Restasis, oil-based lubricants, and a thicker ointment for nighttime lubrication. Plus, my doctor recommended Theratears.

Love Them!!! 5

I have never written a product review, but I have searched for two years for tall boots that fit my muscular calves and I finally found them. I ordered these boots in black. After wearing them once, I went back and ordered them in the light tan color.

My calves have always been an issue fitting in tall boots. They are muscular and larger than average, but not so big that I need an 'extended calf' boot. These fit great and I can even wear them with skinny jeans under them. They also look cute with skirts/dresses. They are extremely comfortable and have a great sole for the snowy conditions in Colorado.

I could not be more pleased with my purchase. If you have the same struggles as I have had, these are the boots for you.

PS- My co-worker also ordered a pair and she does not have the same issues with her calves and they still look cute on her too.

Boots 5

I love these boots.
I've worn them with short skirts and colored tights, under boot-cut pants, and easily over skinny jeans.

The first day I wore them, I pulled them on in the morning, had an active day, and was comfortable in them the entire time. You cannot beat that!

I am on the slim side of average, so if you have super-skinny legs, you might not be happy with them with a skirt, because there's plenty of room at the top, but I think they'd still be good pulled over your skinny jeans. I'd read a review that said the wearer could easily scrunch them down, but maybe she had heavier calves than I do, because they just pop back up for me (and I don't care enough to keep trying it).

The cute little leather bow in front, which is designed to slightly (SLIGHTLY) tighten the boot around the calf, will loosen. You'll probably re-tie them occasionlly when you first put the boots on. I wouldn't recommend pulling hard on those little leather ties to tighten the boot a lot. If one broke, you'd be very unhappy.

I've gotten lots of compliments on them. Order with confidence.

Nice, fashionable 4

These boots are very cute. I bought these in purple and I was worried, but it's a great color, not too muted but not loud either. I like that they aren't 100% flat but they are still easy to walk in (the heel is less than an inch, maybe 1/2"). The suede is good quality, and the buckle on top is helpful with keeping the boots up. You can have the top of the boots either folded down or pulled up for different looks.

I have medium calves, and although I have found boots that just wouldn't go on before, it's not usually an issue. These boots are pretty wide on my leg, which I like because I cam wear jeans or leg warmers easier. They would be good for someone with larger calves, but because of the top buckles they are good for smaller calves too. Aside from that, the boots seem true to size. I ordered size 9 and they fit me as expected.

One thing negative is that you must beware when you're wearing them. There is a support inside each boot that is really firm and sharp. My ankles land right on it if I step one way, and it always gives me blisters, even on just a short walk. I usually like wearing short tennis socks, but not with these boots! I have to wear tall socks to protect my ankles from blistering. This is the design, not something that goes away from breaking them in.

I ordered these direct from amazon. There is a flaw in the suede, but it's not noticeable and won't get worse so I didn't want to hassle a return/exchange. You may want to inspect them before wearing them around town.

These boots aren't particularly warm and don't have a lot of traction on the bottom. If you are looking for something for cold weather they'll do ok because there's room to add layers and socks, but if it's below freezing and you're in snow and ice, these would not be not my top choice.

My daughter received this as a Christmas gift and she really loves them. They fit perfectly and the color is a nice dark gray that she wanted.
Nice fit and finish too.

Not Made Well 5

I got this boot in black suede after returning my black and tan leather ones. I loved them at first then was pissed to realize the flap underneath the cuff does not match the material of the rest of the boot. If you try to go for the over the knee look you can't because on the leather pair, they have a nasty looking faux suede underneath that throws the whole look off and on the suede pair its some strange material that resembles leather! Also, the seams are put together sloppily and you can see glue between the sole and the shaft. CRAZY [...].I wish JS would get it together. She would NOT be caught wearing these.

With that being said, the boot fits well and is easy enough to walk in for a heel so high. The suede ones flez more than the leather ones which were tight at the ankle. For sixty bucks I would say great buy but for this money, i'm upset. I wish endless.com allowed us to edit our reviews. My initial one was too good.

Fashionista!!! 4

I absolutely love this boot!! They are so trendy, fashionable, and if I could wear them every day I would!! Again, a little uncomfortable if worn all day b/c your foot is positioned at an angle, but they are not so uncomfortable that you can't wear them. So cute with jeans or skirts!!

Nice, cute boots that give height 4

I am 5'1" tall and wanted something that could give me some extra inches without looking so. This pair of boots are really cute and for the most part, comfortable. My toes seem to cramp a little in there, so I frequently had to adjust my feet position backward to avoid that problem. Walking (on a flat surface) is easy with this pair, but the long strings did want to combine together, so be careful. It's always hard to walk downhill on something this high, as expected.
I had to give a 4 for the toes space. Otherwise, I love this pair.

Boots that makes you feel like a 10 !! that is what these boots are.

Super sexy, butter soft boots! 4

The suede is fabulous and the interior is warm, silky soft faux fur lined. It felt very true to size and width. I didnt love the tassle ties on the front and, after tripping over one while walking up the stairs, decided to cut them off. Over all a gorgeous boot!
