Ectropion eye
Has anyone any advice on ectropion eye? I have glaucoma and diplopia and have been advised to have an operation to tighten the bottom eyelid. This is on my good eye, so I am rather nervous about it.

EYES DRY, ITCHY, BURNING, TEARING
My eyes have changed over the last few weeks. They are so dry, but I use eye gel. Tearing at random, blurry when reading. Feels scratchy and like there's somethinf in them. Eye drops help for less than an hour. When reading I find myself inadvertently closing my right eye, left eye is better. Yesterday

Supplements to reduce glutamate
I was inspired by Widebody's comments on taurine and glycine to look into supplements that reduce glutamate. I found the following on an autism website that I cannot vouch for, but here is the list: (those of us taking gabapentin, pregabalin, horizont are taking medicine that is reducing brain glutamate

Pegasys --> Besremi and HCT
Hi, What a great forum - thanks to you all for contributing. I'm a 37 year old male - diagnosed with PV 3 years ago. I recently made the jump from Pegasys to Besremi. I was on 135ug every 9 days without need of supporting venesection (at least for the last 8 months or so). Since switching medication

Longtime glaucoma patient
Hi. I just wanted to say that my experience with Glaucoma has been over many, many years. I’ve been very fortunate to have had treatment, isoptocarpine which was horrible. I have Myopia and these drops made it almost impossible to see for any length of time. They were to reduce the eye pressure quickly

Coping in the heat
Hi, i have finally got a diagnosis of ET and have started on pegasys, fourth injection this week. It has been warm here the last couple of days and I have found work to be extremely exhausting. Does anyone else suffer in the heat? I work in a lab so need to wear a labcoat. I have asked for an occupational

curious!
Good morning! I am doing so well on prednisone 6mg. I can’t believe the difference after being tapered too quickly and being on only Advil. I have latent TB and have to start a medication for that for 4 months. Apparently, this med will decrease the effects of prednisone! Ugh! Any thoughts?

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

advise required
I am blind in my left eye it has a pressure reading of 36. I am taking Maxidex and azopt which makes my eye sting. I use a heat pad after using the computer which helps . Can I use the heat pad before putting the eye drops in? will this reduce the stinging?

Hi, my consultant wants me to have a Trabeculectomy because my field test is not good, but, my pressures are only 10 and 11 in each eye. Has anyone else had a suggestion like this? I am worried my pressure will go too low and create more problems. Thanks

Ablate or wait?
About 1 year ago I suffered with recurrent AF episodes usually overnight and they lasted from 1 hour to 5 hours. On two occasions I went to A&E and was kept in A&E overnight. I got a consultant appointment and he prescribed Flecainide 100mg twice per day and a spot on the NHS ablation waiting list.
