Yeah. I am in the same boat. Looked everywhere for the LR. Definitely the only stuff that works. WTF...

As of 3-10-10 ... Drugstore.com (claims) to have LR in stock. Again, Visine is NOT discontinuing this product. Just a temporary distribution glitch. I called them today !!!!

Bought some from Amazon today. About 3 dollars more than I usually pay. mmmm, one theory..Visine just put out a new drop called Visine Multi-Symptom. The Visine LR Magically disappeared at about the same time. Maybe it's just a marketing ploy..force people into trying the new product...I'm just sayin'

It doesnt make any sense. There is obviously tons of people who use this product, why take it off the market and not replace it with something comparable. Is Visine (Johnson & Johnson) being sued for this product? Its the only logical reason I can come up with of why its not on shelfs nationwide. We need answers!

I went to 12 stores in the last 2 days trying to find it but I can't. I'm trying a few more places on the way home today. I really hope I find some.

I, like everyone else here, suffer from red eyes. I've tried very eye drop on the market, and nothing works like Visine LR. I like you cannot find the product anywhere. I called Johnson & Johnson yesterday, April 23, 2010, and they confirmed that the product has not been discontinued,but they had trouble with their new distributor. It will be back on the shelves within 6-8 weeks.
Until then, the Afrin Nasal Spray works just the same as Visine LR. A little better, really. This is the first time my eyes have been white since I ran out of my LR one month ago. The B&L didn't work for me at all and everything else is garbage. It's pretty much the same ingredients and will serve as a substitute until the real thing comes out.

These are the only drops that work for many people. The problem is I do not need my eyes moisturized, I just need the red out. All the others focus on moisturization, but it ends up making my eyes look worse. I do not get the shortage problem with these drops. If I ever find any Oxy drops, I will post them here.... We all need help on this...

Your right! Nothing works as well! However, I was just introduced to Rite Aid Allergy Relief drops this morning by my sister. And to my amazement...it worked great!!!

I just wanted to post that I have been without this product for almost 3 weeks now, after twice a day usage for many years. I am beginning to believe what most eye doctors will tell you, that these products create their own need.. After two miserable weeks of redness and grittiness, my eyes are improving naturally. Clearer and brighter and I am only using a drop of Naphcon A allergy relief, and just some natural tears. I have lasik related dry eye syndrome. And I agree, its pretty shady that they are making no effort to publicly state that they've discontinued it. Starting to think that ingredient that worked so well, but not found in any other product, might be damaging and maybe they realized that. Anyway..I'm kind of glad I was forcibly weaned off it.

Thank you, Daryl and all who are signing the petition. Once we get a fair number of signatures, I am going to make sure it gets to Johnson and Johnson.

Sorry, I haven't replied before. I just receiced the Zoamet last night. It comes in a 5ml bottle. 1/3 of the size of Visine L.R. Great drops, my eyes cleared immediately and the most important they stayed clear. Personally I think it works better that the last batches of the Visine L.R. Let's see how it works.

Rhonda,

Thank you for signing the petition. I wonder why Johnson and Johnson sent a medical questionnaire to you? Strange, not addressing the issue. I plan to send the signed petition to them once I get more signatures. I don't know what else to do but am open to suggestions.

I tried to reply yesterday but it's not showing up... no wonder I couldn't find it at the 2 Rite Aid stores I went to on Sunday (new coupon campaign where it would cost roughly 1.23 a bottle with stacked coupons). I can't believe this, thank goodness I always kept a running stockpile. I went to a Walgreens and CVS yesterday; nothing. This morning on the way to work, I went to another Rite Aid and found one bottle. I think I did a happy dance in the aisle. Christina -- I also signed the petition and contacted the company.

I as well have had no luck finding Visine LR in the last 3 months. This is quite disheartening as it is the ONLY product that has ever worked for my issues with daily severe red eye. Does anyone know why it's been removed indefinitely from shelves? Has anyone found a descent alternative product? I see some feedback on here regarding another product called ZOAMET, which I have never heard of. How can I obtain Zoamet??
