As I wrote couple of months ago I was suffering sever dry eye. By the good advice of my dear friends here, I went to ophthalmologist and she told dryness is sever and the schirmer(? )test for measuring the volume of tears was extremely low. Also she said I have minor ulcerations on cornea. So she prescribed Restasis twice a day and said if it doesnβt work well I should put on punctum plugs. After 6wks of being on Restasis I went back for follow up visit. Glad My eyes were incredibly improved and there was no ulcers and I donβt need punctum plugs anymore πππ. Letβs see what will happen in futureππ»ππ»
Thanks to all my friends here for being aside me and giving good advices β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ

Sona_akb - good news that your eyes are improved, and well done for all you did yourself to get the right treatment eventually. Best wishes, stay well.
I am so pleased to read your update! I had my usual eye test on Friday and was pleased that my sight has only deteriorated slightly due to old age. I did mention my dry eye though and so was given some yellow drops so the eye surface was clearer to examine. It seems there are some strange bumps on the eye surface, not near enough to the centre to cause sight problems yet but enough to need further investigation. Your post now makes me think that I probably have a problem resulting from dryeye and your good results are really encouraging. So thanks! Youβve made me feel much better!!
Thank you for paying attention my post. Iβm so pleased too that your eye sight is fine and Iβm sure other problems wil be soon resolved by treatment
