A member asked:
What over-the-counter eyedrops are similar to restasis?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
None: Restasis has cyclosporine which is not OTC. It is highly effective for dry eyes and best used long term. The manufacturer usually provides coupons to help with the cost. Dry eye OTC drops are lubricating or re-wetting drops in various formulations.

No: Refresh endura is the vehicle for Restasis but there is no over-the-counter equivalent for the medication component of restasis.
