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 doesn’t 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 don’t need punctum plugs anymore πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰. Let’s see what will happen in futureπŸ™πŸ»πŸ™πŸ»

Thanks to all my friends here for being aside me and giving good advices ❀️❀️❀️

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! You’ve made me feel much better!!
