Most over-the-counter eye drops available today supplement the aqueous layer only. These drops do nothing to restore the protective lipid layer, leaving patients reaching for their eye drops time and again throughout the day because the drops only provide short-term relief. Soothe, from USA, is different in that it is one of only three products specifically for relief from evaporative dry eye symptoms. (In Europe the innovative Clarymist Spray has been shown to be superior to Liposic Gel )

Soothe features an advanced lipid restorative, Restoryl, that reduces harmful tear evaporation and seals in essential moisture, giving patients up to a claimed 8 hours of relief from discomfort.

What the manufacturers say.

Restoryl reinforces the outermost lipid layer of the tear film as part of a meta-stable emulsion that combines two highly refined mineral oils: Drakeol-15 and Drakeol-35. Once applied to the eye, Soothe rapidly differentiates into:

• Restoryl (Neutral Oils) - rapidly rebuilds the protective lipid layer
• Interfacial molecules - work to attach the lipid layer to the aqueous layer and support the mucin layer
• Water - restores the aqueous layer of the tear film.

Smooth is a milky white solution and blurs vision for two minutes. It is preserved, but not with the offending Benzylkonium Chloride. Like all bottles it must be discarded after 28 days. 

After testing Soothe on evaporative dry eye patients I have concluded Soothe is far less effective than Clarymist. I am therefore discontinuing it.
