The Restasis actually doesn't bother me very much. It stings a couple minutes after putting it in, but for a pretty short amount of time and it's tolerable. My right upper eyelid though usually feels heavy over the long-term, and sort of "sticks" to the top of my orbital bone (like below my eyebrow). It's a very strange side-effect that I have not been able to find anything about anywhere. I'm thinking that maybe my eyelid gets a bit swollen actually.
I was trying to avoid putting anything in my eyes because it was such a bad flare-up that I just didn't know what to do. I know everything takes time to work, or for symptoms to die down, but it's really hard to be patient when going to work and using a computer for 10+ hours a day is sheer torture. So this weekend I just tried to avoid anything that might be causing a negative reaction.
I do agree with you though regarding restarting the Restasis ASAP, and I very much appreciate the advice / support.
