HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Aces Eyedrops by Healing Oasis
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
Aces Eyedrops contains 8 ingredients. The active ones are vitamin C, vitamin A, Vitamin E Complex, and four others we'll describe separately.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant; vitamin A supports eye tissue and vision; Vitamin E Complex (tocotrienols) is another antioxidant. Quinton, Methylsulfonylmethane, N-Acetyl L-Carnosine, Dimethylsulfoxide, and Silver round out the formula.
There are no other inactive ingredients listed.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence we hold shows vitamin C is effective for vitamin C deficiency and possibly effective for several eye-related and general health conditions including cataracts and exercise-induced respiratory infections. Vitamin A is effective for vitamin A deficiency and possibly effective for aging skin and measles.
Vitamin E Complex (tocotrienols) is possibly effective for diabetes but possibly ineffective for high cholesterol; evidence for other uses is insufficient. We have no effectiveness data in our records for Quinton, Methylsulfonylmethane, N-Acetyl L-Carnosine, Dimethylsulfoxide, or Silver.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin C is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth, applied to skin, or given intravenously, but very high doses can cause stomach cramps, heartburn, nausea, and diarrhea — and in people prone to kidney stones, there's a risk. Vitamin A is generally safe at recommended amounts; very high doses can cause liver damage, headache, and serious effects are rare.
Vitamin E Complex appears well tolerated in studies with no adverse effects reported in clinical trials, though topical use has caused mild itching in a small number of trial participants. For pregnancy and lactation: vitamin C normal amounts are likely safe, but high-dose supplements are possibly unsafe — talk with your doctor.
Vitamin A recommended amounts are likely safe, but high doses (especially retinol) are possibly unsafe due to birth defect risk. Vitamin E Complex has not enough safety data for pregnancy; avoid supplemental doses unless your doctor advises otherwise.
For breastfeeding, vitamin E Complex safety is unclear; avoid supplements unless your healthcare provider recommends it.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Check before using if you take retinoids (tretinoin, isotretinoin, adapalene — Major interaction with vitamin A), estrogens or oral contraceptives, blood thinners (warfarin) or antiplatelet drugs (aspirin), tetracycline antibiotics, or chemotherapy drugs. These are the drug types with documented interactions in the product's ingredients.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
If you use prescription acne treatments, retinoid creams, birth control pills, hormone therapy, blood thinners, or chemotherapy, check with your pharmacist before using this eyedrop. Even though it's topical, some of these ingredients can be absorbed systemically.
Most people will tolerate the vitamins well at these doses, but the ingredient list includes several we couldn't verify for safety data.

Aces Eyedrops by Healing Oasis Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Aces Eyedrops by Healing Oasis contains several ingredients with documented interactions.
The most serious concern is vitamin A with retinoids (isotretinoin, tretinoin, adapalene, and similar prescription acne and anti-aging drugs) — a Major severity interaction. Taking vitamin A supplements together with retinoids can cause dangerously high vitamin A levels in your blood.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Vitamin C and vitamin A each interact with a number of drug types. Vitamin C can affect how your body handles estrogens (in birth control pills and hormone therapy), blood thinners like warfarin, certain chemotherapy drugs, and several other medications.
Vitamin A has similar concerns with warfarin, and also interacts with tetracycline antibiotics (like doxycycline) and certain cancer drugs. Vitamin E Complex may increase bleeding risk if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like aspirin, though this hasn't been seen in humans yet.
Although this product is an eyedrop, systemic absorption can occur. We could not check interactions for Quinton, Methylsulfonylmethane, N-Acetyl L-Carnosine, Dimethylsulfoxide, or Silver because we hold no data for these ingredients.
Altogether, these interactions span 553 individual medications. Please check your exact medications with the tool on this page before starting.

For each ingredient in Aces Eyedrops with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Vitamin A
Retinoids
Concomitant use of retinoids with vitamin A supplements might produce supratherapeutic vitamin A levels.
Retinoids, which are vitamin A derivatives, could have additive toxic effects when taken with vitamin A supplements.
Hepatotoxic Drugs
Theoretically, taking high doses of vitamin A in combination with other potentially hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver disease.
The tolerable upper intake level (UL) is the highest level of intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects. Doses of vitamin A above the UL can cause hepatotoxicity, ranging from elevated liver enzymes to liver failure.
Tetracycline Antibiotics
Theoretically, taking tetracycline antibiotics with high doses of vitamin A can increase the risk of pseudotumor cerebri.
Benign intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri) can occur with tetracyclines and with acute or chronic vitamin A toxicity. Case reports suggest that taking tetracyclines and vitamin A concurrently can increase the risk of this condition. Avoid high doses of vitamin A in people taking tetracyclines chronically.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, high doses of vitamin A could increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Vitamin A toxicity is associated with hemorrhage and hypoprothrombinemia, possibly due to vitamin K antagonism. Advise patients taking warfarin to avoid doses of vitamin A above the tolerable upper intake level of 10,000 IU/day for adults.
Dimethylsulfoxide
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, DMSO might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro evidence shows that DMSO inhibits adenosine diphosphate- and thrombin-induced platelet aggregation.
Carboplatin (Paraplatin)
In vitro research shows that DMSO reduces carboplatin cytotoxicity by inducing ligand displacement. Theoretically, using DMSO as a solvent for carboplatin may reduce its chemotherapeutic effects.
Cholinergic Drugs
Theoretically, DMSO might increase the risk of cholinergic adverse effects when taken with cholinergic drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that DMSO inhibits acetylcholinesterase activity.
Cisplatin (Platinol-Aq)
In vitro research shows that DMSO reduces cisplatin cytotoxicity by inducing ligand displacement. Theoretically, using DMSO as a solvent for cisplatin may reduce its chemotherapeutic effects.
Platinum Agents
Theoretically, using DMSO as a solvent for platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents may reduce chemotherapeutic effects.
In vitro research shows that DMSO reduces the cytotoxicity of cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin by inducing ligand displacement.
Sulindac (Clinoril)
DMSO might reduce the effectiveness of sulindac and increase the risk of peripheral neuropathy.
Taking DMSO orally with sulindac has been reported to reduce the metabolism of sulindac into its active metabolite. This might reduce the effectiveness of sulindac. Furthermore, using topical DMSO concomitantly with sulindac has been linked with peripheral neuropathy.
Topical Drugs
Topical DMSO might increase the effects and adverse effects of topical drugs.
Evidence from animal studies and limited human studies suggests that DMSO may potentiate the action of numerous topical medications by increasing their absorption through the skin. This increase in absorption seems to depend on the concentration of DMSO and the molecular weight of the medication.
Verteporfin (Visudyne)
Theoretically, DMSO might reduce the effects of verteporfin.
In vitro, DMSO has been shown to scavenge free radicals and improve mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. This can theoretically decrease the effects of verteporfin.
Vitamin C
Alkylating Agents
Theoretically, antioxidant effects of vitamin C might reduce the effectiveness of alkylating agents.
The use of antioxidants like vitamin C during chemotherapy is controversial. There is concern that antioxidants could reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs that generate free radicals, such as cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil, carmustine, busulfan, and thiotepa. In contrast, some researchers theorize that antioxidants might make chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that could interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. More evidence is needed to determine what effect, if any, antioxidants such as vitamin C have on chemotherapy.
Aluminum
Vitamin C can increase the amount of aluminum absorbed from aluminum compounds.
Research in animals and humans shows that vitamin C increases aluminum absorption, theoretically by chelating aluminum and keeping it in solution where it is available for absorption. In people with normal renal function, urinary excretion of aluminum will likely increase, making aluminum retention and toxicity unlikely. Patients with renal failure who take aluminum-containing compounds such as phosphate binders should avoid vitamin C supplements in doses above the recommended dietary allowances.
Antitumor Antibiotics
Theoretically, the antioxidant effects of vitamin C might reduce the effectiveness of antitumor antibiotics.
The use of antioxidants like vitamin C during chemotherapy is controversial. There is concern that antioxidants could reduce the activity of chemotherapy drugs which generate free radicals, such as doxorubicin. In contrast, some researchers theorize that antioxidants might make chemotherapy more effective by reducing oxidative stress that could interfere with apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. More evidence is needed to determine what effects, if any, antioxidants such as vitamin C have on chemotherapy.
Estrogens
Vitamin C might increase blood levels of estrogens.
Increases in plasma estrogen levels of up to 55% occur under some circumstances when vitamin C is taken concurrently with oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy, including topical products. It is suggested that vitamin C prevents oxidation of estrogen in the tissues, regenerates oxidized estrogen, and reduces sulfate conjugation of estrogen in the gut wall. When tissue levels of vitamin C are high, these processes are already maximized and supplemental vitamin C does not have any effect on estrogen levels. Increases in plasma estrogen levels may occur when patients who are deficient in vitamin C take supplements. Monitor these patients for estrogen-related side effects.
Fluphenazine (Prolixin)
Theoretically, vitamin C might decrease levels of fluphenazine.
In one patient there was a clinically significant decrease in fluphenazine levels when vitamin C (500 mg twice daily) was started. The mechanism is not known, and there is no further data to confirm this interaction.
Indinavir (Crixivan)
Vitamin C can modestly reduce indinavir levels.
One pharmacokinetic study shows that taking vitamin C 1 gram orally once daily along with indinavir 800 mg orally three times daily reduces the area under the concentration-time curve of indinavir by 14%. The mechanism of this interaction is unknown, but it is unlikely to be clinically significant in most patients. The effect of higher doses of vitamin C on indinavir levels is unknown.
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)
Vitamin C can increase levothyroxine absorption.
Two clinical studies in adults with poorly controlled hypothyroidism show that swallowing levothyroxine with a glass of water containing vitamin C 500-1000 mg in solution reduces thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and increases thyroxine (T4) levels when compared with taking levothyroxine alone. This suggests that vitamin C increases the oral absorption of levothyroxine, possibly due to a reduction in pH.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
High-dose vitamin C might reduce the levels and effectiveness of warfarin.
Vitamin C in high doses may cause diarrhea and possibly reduce warfarin absorption. There are reports of two people who took up to 16 grams daily of vitamin C and had a reduction in prothrombin time. Lower doses of 5-10 grams daily can also reduce warfarin absorption. In many cases, this does not seem to be clinically significant. However, a case of warfarin resistance has been reported for a patient who took vitamin C 500 mg twice daily. Cessation of vitamin C supplementation resulted in a rapid increase in international normalized ratio (INR). Tell patients taking warfarin to avoid taking vitamin C in excessively high doses (greater than 10 grams daily). Lower doses may be safe, but the anticoagulation activity of warfarin should be monitored. Patients who are stabilized on warfarin while taking vitamin C should avoid adjusting vitamin C dosage to prevent the possibility of warfarin resistance.
Acetaminophen (Tylenol, Others)
High-dose vitamin C might slightly prolong the clearance of acetaminophen.
A small pharmacokinetic study in healthy volunteers shows that taking high-dose vitamin C (3 grams) 1.5 hours after taking acetaminophen 1 gram slightly increases the apparent half-life of acetaminophen from around 2.3 hours to 3.1 hours. Ascorbic acid competitively inhibits sulfate conjugation of acetaminophen. However, to compensate, elimination of acetaminophen glucuronide and unconjugated acetaminophen increases. This effect is not likely to be clinically significant.
Aspirin
Acidification of the urine by vitamin C might increase aspirin levels.
It has been suggested that acidification of the urine by vitamin C could increase reabsorption of salicylates by the renal tubules, and increase plasma salicylate levels. However, short-term use of up to 6 grams daily of vitamin C does not seem to affect urinary pH or salicylate excretion, suggesting this interaction is not clinically significant.
Choline Magnesium Trisalicylate (Trilisate)
Acidification of the urine by vitamin C might increase choline magnesium trisalicylate levels.
It has been suggested that acidification of the urine by vitamin C could increase reabsorption of salicylates by the renal tubules, and increase plasma salicylate levels. However, short-term use of up to 6 grams daily of vitamin C does not seem to affect urinary pH or salicylate excretion, suggesting this interaction probably is not clinically significant.
Niacin
Vitamin C might decrease the beneficial effects of niacin on high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels.
A combination of niacin and simvastatin (Zocor) effectively raises HDL cholesterol levels in patients with coronary disease and low HDL levels. Clinical research shows that taking a combination of antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and selenium) along with niacin and simvastatin (Zocor) attenuates this rise in HDL, specifically the HDL-2 and apolipoprotein A1 fractions, by more than 50% in patients with coronary disease. It is not known whether this adverse effect is due to a single antioxidant such as vitamin C, or to the combination. It also is not known whether it will occur in other patient populations.
Salsalate (Disalcid)
Acidification of the urine by vitamin C might increase salsalate levels.
It has been suggested that acidification of the urine by vitamin C could increase reabsorption of salicylates by the renal tubules, and increase plasma salicylate levels. However, short-term use of up to 6 grams/day vitamin C does not seem to affect urinary pH or salicylate excretion, suggesting this interaction probably is not clinically significant.
Vitamin E Complex
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Concomitant use of tocotrienols with anticoagulant or antiplatelet agents might increase the risk of bleeding. However, this has not been reported in humans.
Taking tocotrienols orally inhibits experimentally-induced platelet aggregation in humans. Theoretically tocotrienols might increase the risk of bleeding if taken with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs. However, tocotrienols 400-800 mg daily have been used with aspirin and/or clopidogrel for 1 year with no clear cumulative antiplatelet effects and no reports of bleeding.
