Eye drops / atificial tears - which ones?

I have been advised by my opthamologist (eye doctor) to get some eye drops, as they're meant to help with tiredness and generally feeling sleepy.

Is there much different between brands? And which ones should I get? I was given a piece of paper with a brand of eye drops on; but can't read the name of it.

    Can you not get somebody to read it to you, I bet most random strangers even would read it! ;)

    Though low and behold when I was in the pharmacy the other day this woman brought two different brands of artificial tears to the pharmacist and asked if there was much difference or if one was better and the pharmacist said no... of the two she chose at least, I don't know which ones they were.

    Thank you. I have been given some gel to use instead of drops. Now just need to get used to putting them in my eyes.
