The most common side effects of Refresh Tears Eye Drops are irritation, mild burning sensation, and blurred vision. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.

Spending long hours on screens can cause Computer Vision Syndrome with dryness and irritation. You can use lubricating eye drops like Carboxymethylcellulose or Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose 2?3 times daily for relief. Also follow the 20-20-20 rule (every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds), blink often, adjust screen brightness, and keep proper distance. If symptoms persist, consult an eye doctor.

Refresh Tears Eye Drops contains Carboxymethylcellulose 0.5% w/v, a lubricating ingredient used to relieve eye dryness and irritation. However, in a 1 year old baby, it should only be used if advised by a paediatrician or ophthalmologist, because eye symptoms at this age can have different causes, such as infection, allergy, or blocked tear duct. Proper medical evaluation is important before using any eye drops in infants or young children.

A burning sensation in your eyes may be caused by dryness, eye strain, or an outdated spectacle prescription. Try taking regular breaks from screens, using lubricating eye drops (artificial tears), and ensuring your glasses prescription is up to date. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please see an optician or eye doctor for a proper check-up.

Long-sightedness means nearby objects look unclear due to focusing issues in the eyes. Use proper reading glasses as advised, ensure good lighting while reading, take regular breaks from close work, and avoid eye strain. Do simple eye exercises, keep screens at a proper distance, and maintain good eye care habits. If it is affecting daily work or worsening, consult a doctor to check your vision and update the correction if needed.

Eye twitching in both eyes along with strain, irritation, or a heating feeling is usually not dangerous and is most often linked to common, everyday causes. The most frequent reasons include stress, lack of sleep, long screen time (mobile, computer, TV), eye strain from not using proper glasses, dry eyes, excessive caffeine (tea/coffee), or fatigue. When the eyes are overworked or dry, the small muscles around the eyelids can start twitching on and off. The feeling of irritation or heat often goes along with dryness or eye strain. To improve this, the first step is to reduce strain on your eyes. Try to take regular breaks when using screens by looking away every 20 minutes and focusing on a distant object for a short time. Ensure you are getting proper sleep and managing stress, as both strongly affect eye twitching. If you use a mobile or computer for long hours, reduce brightness and avoid continuous use in dim light. Using lubricating eye drops (artificial tears) can help if dryness is contributing to irritation. Drinking enough water and reducing excess tea or coffee may also reduce twitching. Wearing the correct glasses, if you need them, is very important because even small vision problems can cause continuous eye strain. Warm compresses over closed eyes for a few minutes a day may also help relax the eye muscles. You should consult an eye specialist if the twitching continues for a long time without improvement, becomes very frequent or severe, spreads to other parts of the face, or if you notice vision changes, pain, redness, or swelling. In most cases, this condition is harmless and improves with rest, better eye care, and lifestyle adjustments.
