Review: Rohto Lycee Eyedrops for Contact Lenses

12. September 2013
Hello ♥
This review was a long time in my draft and I forgot to publish it :D I bought Rohto Lycee Eyedrops with the Geo Princess Mimi Apple Green Circle lenses at Pinky Paradise reviewed >>here<<. I fell in love with the packaging and I was looking for a small eyedrop product for putting into my purse and this it is.

Here is the product description by Pinky Paradise: 

Rohto Lycee Contact Eyedrops (for contact lenses) – Light Pink
Ideal for those having dry eyes while wearing contact lenses. 
Main function:
To re-hydrate the eyes and solve the problem of eye dryness. 
Additional Benefits:
Reduce redness & refreshing your eyes
How to Use:
Put 1 or 2 drops in the affected eyes up to 5-6 times daily.
Discontinue using if pain, itching, or sensitivity occurs.
MADE IN JAPAN 

The packaging contains the instructions and the little eyedrop container. The instructions is written in Japanese, but there are some images, so you get how it works. Apart from this there is not much you can do wrong about eyedrops. ;)
Edit: I was asked for the ingredients of these eyedrops. Since the package is in Japanese I couldn’t read it, but I saw that Pretty&Cute had listed the ingredients here: 

Tetrahydrozoline Hydrochloride 0.04%
Zinc Sulfate 0.1%
Chlorpheniramine Maleate 0.01%
Vitamin B12 0.006%
Vitamin B6 0.05%
Potassium L-Aspartate 1.0%
 

 

 

The pink package keeps its promise of being cute and girly. The eyedrop container has a rectangular shape and is made of plastic. The cap can be closed tightly with a little pressure and is released by twitching it. The pink cap has tiny sparkling particles within, too. The bottle of the container is transparent and the eyedrop solution has a pale pink color, too, which is caused by the vitamin B12. The bottle contains 8 ml eyedrop solution.

 

The is designed in a way that you can easily put the eyedrops in your eyes from all angles you use, which I think is really useful.

How is the effect on the eyes now?! The main function of eyedrops is to provide moisture, because contact lenses can be pretty drying for your eyes. Rohto’s Lycee Eyedrops do moisturize pretty well. Also, these eyedrops are designed to cool your eyes and refresh them. I read on other blogs about these eyedrops that they were burning a bit. I didn’t experience burning. I did experience burning in my eyes while cleansing my face and getting accidentally cleanser into my eyes, but these eyedrops were not burning, they were cooling. This is comparable to toothpaste: you brush your teeth and the toothpaste gives you a cooling and refreshing taste in your mouth. My eyes felt much better after I used it, especially after a long working day in front of the computer screen..Rohto’s Lycee Eyedrops is really a great product and it full-filled all the claims I had for it. :)
Nevertheless, I have to warn, that this is not a huge product. It only contains 8 ml and is thus quite expensive. At Pinky Paradise it was sold for US$ 12.99. At the moment it is out of stock, but there are other eyedrops available from Rohto. On ebay you can find them for around 10 US$. Because of the price I’ll give them only a rating of 4/5 instead of 5/5.
