Having problems finding this product. Has it been discontinued and if so, do you know why?
Krissy and Ron, can you please explain the Afrin Nasal Spray? Are you putting it directly in your eyes, and which brand, there are several different types, such as Afrin 12 hour, extra strength, etc.
This would be fantastic if this actually works, I am almost out, and just ordered six bottles of Visine Workplace from Canada Pharmacy.
Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.
This is the best.. Amazon has it for $79.99 for a .5 oz. bottle, show list price of $6.11. Whoever buys it at this price will be sorry when it show up on the shelves agin for $5.99. This stuff was discontinued in Canada about 12 yrs. ago, but I live in a border town and was always able to get it quite easily from the U.S.
finally found a seller on amazon that has visine lr i just bought two 1oz bottles because no other eye drops seem to work for me. here is the link to the page for anyone who finds themselves in teh same situation as me. hope this helps Visine Eye Drops (Lr) Bottle 1 Ounce on Amazon.com
I looked all over for this stuff, pharmacies tell me they're all discontinued . Can't find this stuff online except for amazon and ebay. I don't know what I'll do without it.
I live in NY (bronx) and I can find Visine LR in most pharmacies.. I recently bought one in RiteAid and it expires 12/2011. Its crazy to read about so many people that can't find this little yellow labeled bottle. Move to NY is my suggestion
Conny, Order from CanadaPharmacy.com (Visine Workplace) or if you need it fast try Ebay. It's going to cost you a pretty penny on Ebay but there are some there.
we can't find Visine LR anywhere and my husband is going crazy...he can't work without it...any news out there? This is craziness...
thought i was goin to never be able to work again. until i found it..
i just found a bottle that i lost 3months ago. thank god the whole thing seems like an epidemic now. i feel lucky that i have 1 left. thought i couldnt goto ork anymore
I too, can no longer find Visine LR, I used to get it from Lucky's and that was the only place I was able to find it. I knew they were going to do this with this product, I could just feel it., Usually when a product does the job and people find out about it the other products don't sell as well. aha, they discontinue the product that keeps flying off of the shelves to force consumers to buy something else. The system is flawed my people.
I just received my Visine Workplace from Canada. While I haven't tried it yet, the ingredients are exactly the same as Visine LR. I am disappointed in the fact that the expiration date is 1/2011...so this must be older stock because you usually get a later expiration date. I bought it from Feelbest.com...so you might want to avoid this site if they only have stock that expires in 8 months.
Just got off the phone with J&J again. Representative reiterated that they are experiencing difficulties with distribution, and that the product is not discontinued. In the mean time, use Lorina's coupon code for CanadaPharmacy.

At the end of this, there is a Marketing Start Date which is April 5, 2010. Anyone have any clue what this is all about? Could it be production was started again on April 5, 2010?????
I forgot to include in my previous post that I purchased the Canadian equivalent of Visine LR called Visine Workplace from a Canadian pharmacy in Ottawa. What I didn't include was the expiration date was 01/11 which is proof that it is older stock and possibly Canada's supply will be exhausted soon too! Oh, Laudy, what are we going to do!
Christina, what I am wondering is why Visine would say that it is not being discontiued if it really is. Why wouldn't they just announce it ? why would they care if we complained. they would just explain that demand was down etc. It is baffling to say the least. I'm going to keep calling until I get through. I'll keep you posted.
Jessie, thanks for your response.
No, I agree with everyone something is very strange indeed. That is why I am still uncertain about the whole situation and what VISINE reported to me. I am in California and I have beens searching the entire state for months. Nothing. Seems weird that everyone's expiration dates are near 8/2011. If anyone gets through to VISINE by phone, please post their response.
Glebe Apothecary in Ottawa, Ontario is sold out online. I purchased one bottle about two weeks ago and started to worry so I ordered another and now they are out. Visine must be discontinuing it.
Christina, I have been trying to call since i read your post but to no avail. the recording says due to high volume they can't direct my call.
There is something strange about this whole situation. Why hasn't Visine put anything on their website about Visine LR and the reason we can't find it? I think it's been discontinued and for some unknown reason they don't want to tell us.
