Aquaphor in eyes?: Using petroleum jelly or aquaphor around the eyes is not recommended. The label on the aquaphor tube states "when using this product do not get into eyes" and that the intended uses for the product include protecting minor cuts, scrapes or burns, and relieving chapped or cracked skin or lips. I would recommended using refresh pm, lacrilube, (artificial tears) or genteal severe gel in your eyes at bedtime for dry eye.
