Can I use it with other eye drops?

Yes, but you’ll want to wait at least 5 minutes between products.

Do I need a prescription?

No. LUMIFY is available over the counter, without a prescription. Find it in the eye care aisle at most major retailers.

How do LUMIFY eye drops work differently?
  • LUMIFY is FDA approved and is the first and only over the counter eye drop to contain the active ingredient brimonidine tartrate (0.025%).

What makes my eyes red?

Occasional eye redness, sometimes referred to as “blood shot”, is a common condition that can be caused by minor eye irritation. Common causes include environmental allergens, excessive use of digital devices, lack of sleep, or dry and/or dusty conditions.

Who is Bausch + Lomb?

Bausch + Lomb is a leading global eye health organization that is solely focused on protecting and restoring people’s eyesight. Its core businesses include over-the-counter supplements, eye care products, ophthalmic pharmaceuticals, contact lenses, lens care products, ophthalmic surgical devices and instruments

What is Brimonidine Tartrate (0.025%)?

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. Brimonidine is NOT a bleach or a dye.

How long will they last?

In clinical trials, LUMIFY provided significant redness reduction for up to 8 hours.

Is LUMIFY FDA approved? What does it mean to be FDA approved?

LUMIFY has been approved for distribution by the FDA after review of our clinical trial program, in which six clinical studies were conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of LUMIFY (brimonidine tartrate, 0.025%) in relieving ocular redness.

How long will a bottle last?

How long the bottle lasts will depend on how frequently you use it. Once eye drops have been opened, they risk being contaminated with bacteria. Therefore, it is recommended that you throw away any opened bottles of eye drops after 3 months, even if the expiration date is later. You also should never share eye drops - eye infections can be spread this way.

How often can I use LUMIFY? Can LUMIFY be used daily?

Instill one drop in each eye that needs it every 6-8 hours. Don’t use more than 4 times a day. As with other OTC redness relievers, you should stop use and ask a doctor if you experience eye pain, changes in vision, redness or irritation that worsens or lasts more than 72 hours (3 days).

Who are LUMIFY eye drops for?

LUMIFY is for anyone 5 years of age and over experiencing eye redness due to minor irritations. If pregnant or breast-feeding, ask a healthcare professional before use.

For adults and children 5 years of age and over:

  • instill 1 drop in the affected eye(s) every 6-8 hours
  • do not use more than 4 times daily
  • remove contact lenses before use
  • wait at least 10 minutes before re-inserting contact lenses after use
  • if using other ophthalmic products while using this product, wait at least 5 minutes between each product
