Hi guys, I stopped by after years or not logging in to give you guys some hope that it does get better, especially for those young people with dry eyes out there...
Ok so this is a short overview of my story: I randomly developed severe dry eyes shortly before my 21st birthday, it put my life on hold, almost drove me to suicide, and severely affected my studies, career and social life. I tried the Boston scleral lenses without success, restasis, toyos IPL treatment, punctal plugs, you name it. I had a miserable year until shortly after my 22nd birthday, when my dad discovered a couple of supplements online and ordered them through amazon in an effort to help me, (The support of my parents kept me sane and alive), it was a special brand of omega 3 called better brain and omega 7 seabuckthorn oil. After i started taking them i felt so much better that i can now wear disposable contacts everyday and have resumed my life as normal. I can consider this a success for me as the most i think about dry eyes now besides being a bad memory is as a nuisance. Theyre just a bit sandy if i abuse them too much (sleep in my makeup+contacts+heavy drinking+allnighters before exams).
I don't advertise this is as the cure but merely as what worked for me and gave me my life back, I was very skeptical but this is what worked for me, I hope i never experience what i went through at my darkest dry eye moments. You guys dont lose anything with giving this a try, I am now about to turn 24 and im graduating with a finance degree that i had to put on hold because of this thing.
Good luck

My doctor rn keeps pushing it on me, but after a year with him, I'm ready for a second opinion. I have an appointment with a corneal specialist in two weeks and I have decided to tell him I refuse to pay for a drug thats making my eyes look so red and inflammed. When u stopped restasis did your eyes clear up from the redness?
