    I spend a fortune on eye drop products like Blink. Anyone got any online recommendations for cheaper eye drops?

    Are these eye lubrication drops? Have you been diagnosed with something specific?

    I only ask because I have a dry eye syndrome thing, and while the eye products are incredibly expensive, if you do have a diagnosed eye condition you're better off buying the more expensive ones as the cheaper say Boots own brand / Optrex ones, as these can actually make your condition worse in the long run as they're usually only meant for short term relief.

    There was a gel based one called Liposec I had been using which was much cheaper than the Blink/Hylo ones. I think Liposec was around €5/6 for a tube compared to twice that for Blink/Hylo.

    Hylo Red or Thealoz Duo are excellent, well worth the money for your eyes. Both have long expiry dates from time of opening compared to cheapers ones.

    I have been using the hylo blue for dry eyes and find them good but are the red better?

    I use this for dry eyes and it's so much more hygienic as a spray, I find. Lasts longer since no air gets in to the bottle

    Just remembered this one too, out of stock on this website, I got it in a few different health food shops.
    Lipid layer product, was quite good quality.

    Red are for everyday use. Liposec used for very dry eyes as its gel based.
