Marj, I can relate to your eye problems. I am hoping this myriad of treatments you have tried include punctual plugs. I have had them in my eyes for years. They keep the tears from going into the tear ducts so my eyes stay lubricated. I’m sure if you’re at the point of custom eye drops you’ve done this but you never know.

Thx Sharon. Yes we tried these plugs. The craziest part of the entire process is the awesome eye doc at MA Eye Ear says the plugs are working in combo with low dose doxycycline I have been taking for months. The associated blinking is now habitual. So I am dealing with the annoying constant blinking. We have to now retrain the brain to stop blinking. Crazy stuff. Hope you are finding relief using drops and warm compresses!
Yes definitely. It is interesting that your pressure was building up from tears. I’ve had radial keratotomy to keep my eyesight and it led to a whole myriad of other problems. Losing your eyesight is super scary and I worry what will happen when I am unable to put my own contact lenses in so I can see. I wish you the best.
Oh boy oh boy! I hope you find relief and soon! Super scary indeed! Thought of losing eyesight is so stressful. If you live alone it is that much scarier.
