Problem with antihistamines
I have glaucoma and the treatment causes me to have dry eyes that have resulted in damaged corneas. I am prescribed Carmellose 1% eye drops. I was also prescribed Fexofenadine tablets for my allergies but decided to stop taking them as watery eyes helped to reduce the dryness. However, given the pollen

I sight needed
I had a craniotomy 2014. Acquired TBI. My husband is a veteran. He too has ptsd but there is no way he will admit it. I have ptsd too. The horrible world situation is too much for me. I can no longer discuss it with him. It is triggering. But he does not stop. He discusses with his brother daily. I have

Dexamethasone & Chloramphenicol. Do they cause blurred vision?
Went down to eye casualty as still had sensitivity and irritation from my cataract op though my vision was clear. No infection but the eye is very dry still. Seems the dry eye drops aren't doing a lot. I need to use my heat mask at least once a day. They've stopped the Betamethasone I was given after

just found this poem I wrote
Hi all I don't know if this is appropriate but I just came across this poem I wrote a few years ago, during a really bad spell of RLS. I am on meds that work now, so it is not as bad. Please pass over if not interested. I just remember wishing someone could understand so I wrote down my experience

Iopidine
Hello everyone, is anyone having problem with getting GP to prescibe Iopidine eye drops? My GP is refusing to prescribe it, saying its coming up as a red flag. Does anyone know what it means? This was prescribed by a consultant at hospital on 22nd March, when I was put on a waiting list for presserflo

Post cataract op light sensitivity
Anyone experienced this? If so, for how long? I've had an injection for all my previous ops - including my first cataract op years ago. This time, just drops and I was more aware of pressure on my eye and searing lights during the surgery. The blur and grittiness cleared by the next day but, a week

Photosensitivity: “Blue/white LED lighting harms humans & wildlife…” Eclipse article p38, Spring 2023 Lupus UK magazine.
Hi there, As a lupus sufferer with light sensitivity I found this article most interesting. Sadly the old warmer, tungsten filament lamps seem to be a thing in the past. Most lamps are now LED with “cool white” as the default. However LED lights are available in “ warm white” less bright with more

Small area of swelling, lower lid
Hi all. I’m newly diagnosed with NTG and haven’t yet had chance to discuss with a specialist as he was off sick so wondered if anyone here can help. I noticed a small, 1 cm area of swelling on my lower lid. Have been using monoprost for 2 months only. Is this usual? Is it blocked glands? Is this why

adverse reactions to Levo
I’m on 125 of thyroxine lots of side effects extremely itchy skin, blurred vision, headaches and digestive problems. Not sure if this is due to getting different brands from pharmacy, is there a particular brand which doesn’t have additives ? I would be grateful for any advise 🙏
