Tear-Lac eye drops
The well-known artificial tear replacement hypromellose is presented in a one drop per click bottle that lasts up to 3 months after opening.
Tear-Lac is a carefully formulated product containing 0.3% Hypromellose, also known as "artificial tears", that can provide immediate soothing relief from the discomfort of mild to moderate dry eye symptoms.
Tear-Lac is preservative and phosphate free and will remain sterile for six months from the time of opening, making it extremely economical.
Tear-Lac eye drops are suitable for adults and children of all age groups and can also be used during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Tear-Lac eye drops are safe to use with all types of contact lenses and so you do not need to remove your lenses before applying the drops.
The recommended dosage is one drop in each eye, three times daily, however the drops can be used more frequently if required.

I won’t be ordering this again unfortunately as I really like the product. The change in dispenser is unfortunate, the original dispensed the amount needed, the new container takes such a long time for the dropper to work and then it floods your face and so much is wasted. The reason I started to use tearlac originally was because of the dispenser, every other type of hypromelose I had tried flooded your face. Not sure what I will use now asI use at least one container a week.

The change in dispenser takes a bit longer to send the drop to the tip to improve sterility.Here is a video showing what is happening inside the tip of the bottle;

The new bottle makes administering the drops far more difficult. After using these for a few years, we will now look for a new product

It may be worth trying an eye drop dispensing aid as they make squeezing the bottle for longer easier;
