Are Japanese eye drops safe to use daily?

Yes. Japanese eye drops sold over the counter in Japanese pharmacies are regulated by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and are considered safe for regular use when following the instructions on the label. For chronic eye conditions, always consult your eye care professional.

What is the difference between Rohto and Sante eye drops?

Rohto and Sante are both top Japanese eye care brands. Rohto is known for strong cooling sensation and innovative formulas. Sante (by Santen Pharmaceutical) specializes in therapeutic eye drops with high concentrations of active ingredients like Sante Medical 12 and Sante FX Neo. Both brands are pharmacy staples in Japan.

Why do Japanese eye drops feel cool or tingly?

Many Japanese eye drops contain natural menthol or camphor, which create a cooling sensation on contact. This is intentional — the cooling effect provides instant relief from tired eyes and is part of the product appeal. If you prefer no cooling, look for drops labeled mild or with a coolness rating of 0.

Can I use Japanese eye drops with contact lenses?

Some Japanese eye drops are compatible with contact lenses, while others are not — especially those designed for soft lenses. Always check the product description for contact lens compatibility. We clearly note this information on each product page.
