I've been using it ever since my lasix surgery. THe only drawback is that it is a very expensive drug in the US - don't know about how that goes in Canada.
In order to make it go further, it comes in little tiny vials - which if I did not use the whole thing, I put in a jigger (liquor container) on my bathroom counter for the evening use. My doctor recommended this! Anyway, it is recommended to use twice a day at first - and now that I'm pretty far away from the surgery in time, I use it once a day in the morning. It really does help, but you will also need to use dry eye drops as needed.
