I stand corrected. I've added some ci tations for balance. If possible, would like to see citations regarding delayed healing. - AED 06:09, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Visine users high on marijuana is not an "Adverse effect"... it's one of the reasons people USE visine. 76.172.222.171 ( talk) 19:44, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
While this is a valid English word, it's, well, weird. You would never hear someone say "I think I'll go instill some eye drops". The word apply is more normal, and thus more accessible, so I used that word instead. If you insist on using "instill", however, I won't fight you on it. StuRat 08:36, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
"Use will create a rebound after a couple of hours and make the eye look even redder. Prolonged use can permanently dilate blood vessels, so use should be limited to 1 or 2 times."
Someone really needs to add a source for this. Frankly, it sounds retarded. Use should be limited to 1 or 2 times? Um then why does it come in big (relatively speaking) bottles? 1 or 2 times, in what period of time?
If visine really "permanently dilated" blood vessels, there would definitely be a source to back that up.
I vote that nonsense be removed, it is way too crazy to be in the article without any citations.
I changed it to "extendedly," permanently is too harsh of a word without a citation, I agree. 76.183.208.237 ( talk) 04:25, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
It seems that "permanently" was a bit of an overstatement. Here's a link to some information [1]. Does WebMD qualify as a "reliable source?" Bwe1862 ( talk) 17:37, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
"Use should be limited to 1 to 2 times."
1 to 2 times over what period of time? And what's the source on permanent dilation? This whole bullet should be clarified or deleted. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 204.15.30.104 ( talk) 05:19, 29 January 2007 (UTC).
The drug test thing is most certainly fiction, and plus, it has no relevance. Deleted. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.138.64.225 ( talk)
i dont know who came up with this BS but its pure fiction
I'v read this research and people shouldn't write something off without knowing anything about it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.24.164.146 ( talk) 06:43, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
It was on the news today that a woman was charged with poisoning a man by adding visine to a drink. He felt sick and had to be taken to the hospital. What's that all about? Not for internal use I guess, but how can it be good for your eyes? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.72.116.25 ( talk) 22:42, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
Why does Visine Tears say that it contains ingredients from tears instead of CHEMICALS? Aren't tears chemical compounds too? Rudd-O ( talk)
Hopefully they mean something other than water!
First: "VISINE TEARS (Glycerin 0.2%, Hypromellose 0.2%, Polyethylene glycol 400 1% - Used AS NEEDED)
Now, what ingredient (apart water and maybe some salts) is "found in natural tears"? 2 g/L glycerol? Hypromellose? Macrogol 400? Misonducting advertisement attempt.
Second: "VISINE-A (Formerly OCUHIST) (Naphazoline hydrochloride 0.025%, Pheniraminemaleate 0.3%)
Naphazoline is the opposite of a vasodilatant agent; it's a local vasoconstrictor. I'm going to edit those parts. Greetings, -- 84.163.116.10 ( talk) 19:50, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
