About Refresh Relieva 

This is Allergan's latest lubricant drop - and it's the 3rd type of packaging they've released it in. The original Relieva came out as both preserved multi-dose bottles and preservative-free multi-dose bottles, then eventually they brought it to conventional preservative free vials. (Actually, before all of this, it was sold as Refresh Repair, but that's another story.)

I hope the fact they brought out vials of Relieva doesn't indicate poor response to the multi-dose preservative-free bottles! The US market has been slow to adapt to these bottles, but they're important... safe, and more economical. Personally, I'm not a great fan of this particular incarnation of the multi-dose PF technology, i.e. the "Darth Vader" cap. But the product is good, and I'm a fan of pretty much all hyaluronate drops.
