“My patients love Regener-Eyes and are loyal users of the eyedrops. Many of my patients have not found any other eye drop to be helpful for their symptoms, including the prescription dry eye drops. What my patients say is that they find the drop provides almost immediate relief for their symptoms and keeps them comfortable throughout the day, which is typically hard to do with any other type of eye drop.”
