Diabetic and Eye Damage
I have been insulin dependant diabetic for 40 years, which has been the cause of my
eye
conditions
. I was one of the first patients my consultant gave
eye
injection, I've had three steroid implants, lots of Lazer and eye injections.

DVLA vision test
I know I have glaucoma in one eye so when I filled out the form online I ticked the box for
eye
conditions
. I’m pretty certain that one of the questions was one or both eyes, I ticked one eye only. Few week later got the dreaded DVLA letter.

EYE HEALTH: RELATIONSHIP OF PMR, PRED & MTX TO GLAUCOMA, CATARACTS, & DRY EYE
The
eye
conditions
have been generated or accelerated by the strong meds. Of course, being 81 yrs old is a contributing factor. Stressors like losing family and friends exacerbates such physical infirmities. But I am content. I have been quiet on this site for many months.

PA and Sjogren’s
I posted a few days ago about dry mouth and eyes, but since then my early sjogrens bloodwork has come back positive. I am terrified! Is there anyone else who has AIG/PA and also sjogrens? I feel desperately in need of some hope and guidance…in particular I’m wondering if injections have helped with SS

Another experience proving we are all different
I had mentioned in a couple of my answers to posts in the group that I had been episode free for over a year, and suddenly I had two back to back episodes of AF. i didn’t remember doing anything different and in fact did not have any alcohol that day or for several days so not drinking anything can

dry eyes and mouth?
hi again all! I am very depleted in ferritin and am awaiting an infusion. I also started b12 injections 3 months ago for PA but I don’t think they’ve been often enough (1x/month). Also just got diagnosed with subclinical hashimotos (thyroid levels are still normal). I’m grasping at straws trying to

Treatment changes - Rituximab?
Finally saw my consultant again last week. Think he was quite surprised at how swollen my hands have become and he said I'd done well to keep going. So am feeling a little more positive, though I'm battling through a lot of pain. The steroid jabs I had in my finger and thumb base seem to have given

Dry eye following Trabeculectomy
Hello I had a right trabeculectomy nearly 4 months ago & all was well until about a week ago. I have used regular lubricating drops as I have had the same surgery in my left eye that was complicated by uveitis. I have tried a variety of lubricating drops & eventually Theoloz gel was recommended & worked

Stretching and exercising after cataract ops
Hi! I did skim this site to see if anyone recently asked about my question, but didn't see anything. I have cataract operations on 12 and 19 June (I also have high IOP but generally below 21; I'm astigmatic (which the ops should correct), and a form of strabismus, where my eye muscles don't line

Eye drops
Hello, I would like your advice regarding eye drops. I am very myopic and also have cataracts. I use hyabak often throughout the day but my eyes still feel dry and uncomfortable which I think is making my sight even worse! I’m wondering whether I should try longer lasting eye drops. Any suggestions would

Unilateral or bilateral procedure?
I was recently referred by my optician as slight differences were noted since last year’s appointment. My referral outcome letter says my optician was “…… querying cupping of the left eye in particular “ and ends with “… Disc ocular coherence topography shows suspicious optic disc on the left side in

Low eye pressure
I have Normal Tension Glaucoma and had a Deep Scleretomy operation on my right eye 18 months ago ( I believe this is a similar operation to a trab, the aim being to lower the pressure) and I have a bleb under my eyelid. Immediately after surgery the pressure dropped to 3 but gradually over eight months

A few questions about being a. ‘Glaucoma suspect’
Hi, first post for me. I’ve been reading your messages since February and they have been very helpful so thank you all!! This is the rather longwinded background: My husband was picked up at a routine eye test as having some changes suggestive of glaucoma. He was seen pretty quickly (within 2-3 weeks

Does Maxidex steroid add to Pred dose?
I had a new lens fitted on 2 April and have to use Dexamethasomex or Maxidex four times a day. Does this add to my total steroid intake with the Pred. Am on 10 mg after a flare and trying to get back to 7.5 as soon as possible. I also have a preventative asthma inhaler which is a steroid presumably
