Cold weather and wet MD

Andijm profile image
7 Replies

I have wet MD in both eyes and have had injections for 18 months.

Cold weather or even a slight breeze cause both eyes to water to the extent that I can hardly see to walk.

Can anyone recommend where I can get some clear protective goggles that would keep the air out ? It is a nightmare if I have eye makeup on.

There's a whole range of safety goggles that would do the trick, ebay or Amazon, and they are quite inexpensive, just a few pounds. Mike.

Dear andijm. I have the same problem and get industrial Perspex goggles from a shop/outlet which stocks supplies for workers on bu idling sites etc. There is a great vRiety of goggles at very cheap prices which protect the eye. I get the kind that I can get my ordinary specs underneath. Under a tenner so get clear and also sunglass ones. Cycle a lot and couldn’t manage without them. all the best.

I have two pairs of these, one for indoors and one for outdoors - and they completely protect your eyes from the elements. They are are a very neat looking google and just look like sunglasses. You can have a clear lens or tinted lens. eyewear-accessories.co.uk/c...
