Big Pharma execs NEEEEEEED to charge that much for their fancy eye rinse. How else can they give themselves such enormous salaries?

They come packaged in tiny .34 ounce bottles and cost $10 or $11. Pisses me off. What could POSSIBLY be in the stuff to cost that much - except for peoples' need to have?

Not to mention how ecologically wasteful bottles that size are. They should be refillable.

I didn't see what the charge was for one, but it was over $100.

Which is also why they're small and refillable. Large and refillable containers increase the chance of contamination over long term use, which isn't what you want happening with a fluid you mingle put in your eyes.
