questions
In the summer, I noticed sporadic noises in one ear. It only happened at night, when lying down to sleep. It was almost like a deep and faint squeak. It lasted 2 days and went away. Months later, after developing a sinus cold, it returned. I did not react immediately as I thought it would pass. After

Simbrinza eye drops
I have been prescribed Simbrinza eye drops as a new method of treatment to bring my eye pressures down. My eye pressures are 23 and 20. These new drops are to be taken twice a day together with Bimatoprost once per day. I have done some background reading on these new drops and the side effects were

No change to my right eye but my left eye continues to lose peripheral vision. The pressure was elevated even

Monopost Eye Drops
Hi, does anyone know of an alternative eye drop to monopost. I have been prescribed this to take in each eye once a day at night but after 2 weeks am finding it unbearable even though I am using eye lubrication drops to try and help with the itchy soreness.

Simbrinza shortage?
Over the years my opthamologist and I have settled on Simbrinza eye drops as the best for my glaucoma. Yesterday my pharmacist tells me he can't find the drops anywhere and he's going to keep looking. We're in SE London area. Any suggestions? Thanks

Taking Ibuprofen whilst on Cosopt eye drops
Good morning, I am suffering from bad lower backache, I wanted to check if I am ok to take Ibuporfen whilst taking Cosopt eye drops twice a day. I have looked online etc but cannot find anything. I have taken Paracetamol but it’s just not shifting. Many thanks

Hair thinning
This is probably a silly question, however I have had multiple different eye drops over the past 7 years for my Glaucoma, and are currently using Travatan and Combigan. Had anybody noticed any changes in hair thinning or hair loss. I seem to have thinning of my hair and are concerned, if this continues

Iopidine
Hello everyone, is anyone having problem with getting GP to prescibe Iopidine eye drops? My GP is refusing to prescribe it, saying its coming up as a red flag. Does anyone know what it means? This was prescribed by a consultant at hospital on 22nd March, when I was put on a waiting list for presserflo

GCA and Elevation
I have had PMR for 5 years and was diagnosed with GCA in September of 2023. I presently am on 4mg of prednisone. I am feeling good and continue to be pretty active and just turned 70 year old. I walk at least 3 miles a day, bike long distances and kayak. I plan on taking a hike up to 10,000 feet

Safe eye makeup
I'm a 69 y/o female taking Lumigan eye drops for dx of Glaucoma suspect and IOP (took Latanoprost drops previously but my pressure was increasing a bit so changed drops). My pressures have been pretty consistent at 17 in both eyes, so I feel pretty lucky right now. I had a S/P LPI procedure in 2012 (

cataract surgery
hi - I am healthy & 65. Very myopic (-10 & -9) with glaucoma in left eye). I have just dropped below DVLA driving limit so consultant is recommending cataract surgery in both eyes (NHS). My question is would it be worth it in terms of quality of vision improvement to go private as I understand that various

Rituximab and Denosumab
Has anyone had a Denosumab injection after having a Retuximab infusion. I have just had my second infusion and due a Denosumab injection soon. Just read that Denosumab can increase the risk of serious infection with Rituximab. Rheumatology have said that it's OK, but I don't trust them.

Sjorgren syndrome
Following months of repeated eye infections, I have now been diagnosed with dry eyes, and drops certainly seem to be helping. However I came across an article on Sjorgren syndrome,. The list of symptoms include dry mouth, IBS, dry eyes, dry skin, joint problems, all of which I suffer from. I also get
