Artificial tears for dry eye syndrome?

Do artificial tears take time (days, weeks) to relieve dry eyes? Or does it start working immediately?

Thanks!

Your typical over the counter artifical tears work on contack. they are like tears. they lubricate and moisten the mucosa of the eye. they should not take days or weeks. if they are not doing the trick consult you doctor because you might have a problem with you lacriminal glad which secreates the tears from you body. you may not be producing any tear and your eyes will continuously dry out.
