No side effects.
You can use it for upto 2-3 months safely.
Instead of relying on drops for do eye , you should make lifestyle modification like practice 20-20-20 rule, keep self hydrated, sit away from fan and ac, blink more often. That'll address dry eye issue better.
Consult local ophthalmologist annually.
