Siccasan Intensive Dry Eye Gel with Carbomer and Dexpanthenol | Corneal Gel & Eye Lubricant | Hydrate Dry Eyes | Relief against Irritated and Sore Eyes | Comfortable on Eyes for Night Time Use

Had PRK done in 2014. Been dealing with dry environments via forced air heat and air conditioning since then.. My eyes constantly dried out and caused constant pain and irritation.. No amount of various drops helped. Bought this about a month ago and it's been nothing short of a miracle. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

In no way is this review to substitute your medical practitioners advice. I have been suffering from a scratched cornea for almost 2 years, treatment protocol from my ophthalmologist has included: antibiotic Rx drops, steroid Rx drops, re-scratching my cornea and me wearing a surgical contact lens for 2 weeks, almost 2 years of purchasing OTC night ointment which consisted of Petroleum jelly and mineral oil - needing to sleep with eye covers etc. Then I finally stumbled upon this gel about 2 weeks ago, which is few weeks prior to scheduled surgery for a membrane graft for my eye. I have been using it for 7 days and have had more relief and success in the first 3 days of Siccasan than I have had in the previous 2 years following protocol. I am extremely satisfied and overjoyed that this gel works the way it is described. I do not have to wear eye protection at night with this, I wake up without my eyelid re-tearing damaged corneal tissue upon waking, my eyes stay more moisturized throughout the day (I am only putting eye drops in once or twice in the day, rather than hourly). I love it, I wish they made eye drops as well.

I very much wanted to get the benefit of the dexpanthenol contained in this unique product, but when the product arrived and I noticed it was preserved with cetrimide, I researched the class into which this preservative falls, and was alarmed to discover that cetrimide is in the same preservative class as BAK and considered to be seriously toxic to cornea tissue when used over time. Yikes. It really surprised me that products as otherwise thoughtful as are those by Siccasan would contain such an awful preservative today when much safer preservatives now ABOUND in the eye care products made by many other companies. In any case, I've set aside this purchase with regret. . . Now the only dexpanthenol product I can find is carried in a base of hyularonic acid, which is usually hypotonic (and potentially counterproductive for stability of the tear film). . . .For what it's worth, I am having a similar problem in relation to locating topical retinyl palmitate for the eye. The only formulation now available in the U.S. and Europe, from what I can tell, is retinyl palmitate in a mineral oil/petrolatum/lanolin base, a base that many dry eye sufferers cannot use (for a variety of reason). . . Will somebody PLEASE create a topical containing both retinyl palmitate and dexpanthenol that is both preservative-free (or preserved safely) AND not in an ointment base???? Crossing fingers. . .

I use this at night because it is too blurry to use during the day.. I would use it all day if i could. I have severe dry eyes and at least i wake up feeling okay. I like them.Update: so i have been using them a little over 2 weeks and my eyes were extremely dry all the time. As i use these i need drops less and less during the day. Got the day time ones to try next along with my 2nd order of this gel.

I relied on Systane nighttime Eye gel until it disappeared without warning or expla nation. This is not as good but is the best replacement I've found. Made in Europe, I can trust this.

I previously used Systane Night Time Gel, but that product is no longer on the market. As mentioned in another review, the Siccasan is not quite as good. However it is far better than anything else available right now.I typically use the gel twice a day. Once when I wake up and another time when I go to sleep. I apply it and close my eyes for about 10 - 15 minutes.I had eye surgery previously, and that left my eyes dry. This product really does help.

Have a spot in one eye that would feel like I was ripping off the cornea in one spot each morning. Eye Dr. recommended an eye gel at night so to ease the morning issue. One I tried was so thick my eye was gummy in the morning. Tried these and found they were lubricated but not so thick and pasty. His 6 week recommendation for treatment is about 4 weeks in and is working well

We use this for our dog who had surgery and can no longer blink

Over the four years since I first started suffering from dry eyes both my doctor and optician have given me prescription after prescription and nothing has helped, some made things worse. I have slowly bought many ones that are available over the counter and again none helped and some made things worse and I am on waiting list to get an appointment to see an eye specialist but because of virus have been told it could now be a couple of years and both my optician and doctor had told me they were worried as flares were happening more and more often and pain in eyes, especially left eye was so bad at times all I could do was lie in the dark as my eyes become photosensitive when flare hits even if they just feel uncomfortable and longest time was 4 days when I could not let the slightest glimmer of light on my eyes so they said I had to go to A&E as they were worried I was getting inflammation or even an ulcer or worse as with delay for ordinary appointments it was the only way they felt I could see an eye specialist sooner and they were worried I could end up losing my eye sight if I waited until I did receive an appointment. I was not using my eyes for much for anything up to two weeks at a time as if I tried it would start the pain again and was beginning to think I may end up having to learn to do things without my eyes even though I did have eyesight.So I was slowly going through all the creams, drops and gels on here and I came next to Siccasan Intensive Dry Eye Gel with Carbomer and Dexpanthenol and from the first drop I had some relief - not earth shattering but for a short time my eye felt less dry although took a few days before pain eased but I have continued using this every day - 3 -4 times a day, not wanted to try the one without Dexpanthenol. I am just finishing my third tube and my flares are becoming much less painful and passing quicker.I don't know if this will keep my dry eyes from becoming worse while I wait to see specialist or at least slow down the damage caused by the dryness but for the moment for the first time in years I feel I have some hope and relief.I admit I am worried that us leaving the EU at end of year will affect me being able to buy it as its from Germany so trying to work out finances so I can buy a stock in, obviously not to much as the shelf life is about a year from when I buy them, unopened of course..

I've used eye drops for a few years due to side effects (dry eyes) after getting Lasik surgery.Sometimes, I wasn't able to open my eyes in the morning because of severe dryness, or I opened or rolled my eyes with extreme pain.But this product helped me opening my eyes without causing any pain!!! such a miracle!!!I highly recommend this product!!

I Brought this to try as I despite being under a ophthalmologist and them prescribing eye drops and creams for my eyes nothing has been helping lately. I suffer from sicca syndrome and have corneal dystrophy. I have to use drops every two hours and when I wake in the morning my eyes are like sandpaper even though I apply the special cream every night before bed. I am now getting frequent eye ulcers from my extreme dry eyes which are incredibly painful, so when I read the reviews I thought it’s got to be worth a try. I am So glad I did. Within 48 hours of applying this gel just two or three times a day(usually I use drops 2 hourly) and my eyes feel fab. No sandpaper in the mornings and my eyes feel more hydrated and less like I need to rip them out. I will put another update after a month of trying but for now I would say don t hesitate, just buy it.Update 26/03/21. I use this every day and am now only needing to place in morning and night. My eyes are no longer like sandpaper and my eyes now have whites as before they were always bloodshot. I will continue to use.

My order arrived on time as promised It was well packed so arrive in good orderI have used the ointment nightly to start with but now use it two to three times a week at bed time and it has made great deal of difference

I’ve struggled with my vision since I had a bad infection in one of them and had tried, unsuccessfully, various gels prescribed by my GP. I used this and within 48 hours I could see an improvement and within about 10 days my vision is back to pre-infection standards-impressive
