Which is better Lumify vs Visine?

Unlike Visine and Clear Eyes, the active ingredient in Lumify (brimonidine tartrate) targets the eye's veins (not the arteries) and so does not interrupt the flow of oxygen in the eye as it works. This also prevents the rebound effect from taking place.

Can Lumify damage your eyes?

Common Lumify side effects may include: mild itching, redness, burning, or other irritation of your eyes; dry mouth, blurred vision; or. drowsiness, tiredness.

When should you not use Lumify?

Do not use if the solution has changed color or is cloudy. Tell your doctor if your condition lasts for more than 3 days or if it gets worse (such as continued eye redness/irritation, eye pain, vision changes). If you think you may have a serious medical problem, get medical help right away.

Why does Lumify work so well?

Brimonidine tartrate is the active ingredient in LUMIFY. Low dose brimonidine selectively constricts the veins in the eye as opposed to arteries thereby providing effective redness relief with low incidence of side effects associated with other redness relievers when used as directed.

Why is Visine bad?

The active ingredients in Visine cause retinal blood vessels to physically shrink. This accomplishes the immediate goal of lessening the eye's redness, however, as the medication eventually wears off, a phenomenon known to eye doctors as “rebound redness” may occur, which makes the initial problem that much worse.

Is Lumify worth the money?

These new Lumify drops are FAR superior to those other redness drops on so many different levels. I'd recommend anyone who has eye redness to use these eye drops, and be sure to throw away all those other redness drops to avoid rebound effects. Absolutely worth every penny.

Does LUMIFY lower eye pressure?

Brimonidine ophthalmic (for the eyes) is used to reduce pressure inside the eyes in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
