Common Questions
What did Major LubriFresh P.M. do?
Major LubriFresh P.M. was an eye ointment used to relieve dryness. It contained a blend of mineral oil and white petrolatum that worked together to lubricate and soothe the eyes. The ointment was specifically formulated for nighttime use, as its thicker consistency could temporarily blur vision.
Why was it used at night?
Because of its thick, ointment-based texture, LubriFresh P.M. provided long-lasting moisture but could cause blurry vision immediately after application. Therefore, it was recommended primarily for use before bedtime to soothe dry, irritated eyes during sleep.
What were the potential side effects?
Like most eye ointments, side effects could include temporary blurred vision (due to the thickness of the product) and mild eye irritation (stinging or burning). If these symptoms persisted or if allergic reactions occurred, users were advised to stop use and consult a doctor.
