In an injured eye, artificial tears also promote surface healing, increase comfort by reducing the feeling of a surface scratch and flush out any residual contaminating or injurious particles. They prevent further damage by keeping the eye lubricated.

Tetryzoline is found in a wide array of over-the-counter eye drops, including the most common brand, Visine. Tetryzoline is also found in combination products with other lubricants and anti-irritants, such as povidone, polyethylene glycol 400, dextran, and zinc sulfate.

You can use Visine occasionally for a short time, but you should not use it for more than 72 hours at a time or every day consistently. Using Visine regularly can actually make your red eyes worse. It can lead to “rebound redness” where your eyes will become persistently red and worse with time.

Eye drops cannot instantly improve the vision of someone who is nearsighted. But, some studies do indicate that eye drops may have potential long-term vision benefits for children with myopia. Low-dose atropine drops may improve vision long-term by slowing the progression of myopia in children.
