I finally found something that is working. I read a post from someone who said putting honey in her eyes all but cured her dry eye syndrome. So, having suffered from this disease for almost 30 years now, I was desperate enough to try it. I did not want to post anything for a few months as sometimes...

Hi Hokucat: My right eye waters all the time. I was thinking of asking my doctor for dissolvable plugs. I’m assuming one would call watery eyes, resultant from dry eye disease, as evaporative tears.(?) Were your eyes watery…was that the reason you sought plugs?

I am 49 and have suffered from severe dry eye syndrom esince my early 20's. It's like your life is a copy of mine. The doctor thinks the cause is ocular roseacea. I too have the bottom two puntua cauterized since my late 20s after I had a nightmare with a punctal plug getting trapped in my eye....

Hello

sorry for being a bit of a "futurist" in the case of dry eye disease, but I always liked science fiction
I have a question about somewhat "more advanced" approaches to treating dry eye disease and other problems with eyes
of course I am trying...

Hi Nevil,

When I first got sclerals, I was able to wear them fairly comfortably for several months, but then my eye dryness and burning got so bad, I could no longer tolerate wearing them.

It’s possible the DMARDs and/or cyclosporine contributed to burning and discomfort....

So, I have been a scleral lens wearer for 4-5 months. Had stopped it later as I wasn't able to wear them comfortably for more than 2 hours.
Post some investigations I was put on DMARDs(Disease-modifying antirheumatic drug) and cyclosporine little later.

A little after starting DMARDs...

Hello

What do You think about this special diet treatment for curing dry eye disease?
I have OSDI around 40 and dry eye disease caused by Sjögren's syndrome

I'd like to ask whether any other dry-eye sufferers are finding that their symptoms have got worse after taking statins?

I was prescribed statins a year ago but decided not to take them because the literature said they could cause "sore eyes". This led me to think that reducing...

I have different underlying conditions, so what helps me may be different. My underlying conditions are likely Sjogren’s Syndrome (autoimmune disease that dries up moisture glands esp. in eyes and mouth), worsened by excessive computer use and long work commutes, which reduced blink rates leading...

I have different underlying conditions than you, so what helps me may be different.

Hello everyone, I tend to believe this may be a controversial topic. However, I also believe this topic isn't discussed nearly enough and could be useful . When I first found the site, I was searching for people that smoked/ate cannabis like myself and how they did so with dry eyes. I found one thread...

[Jamesrogers92]

I know this is a long post but it would really mean a lot if someone could take the time out of their day to just have a read and maybe offer some advice.


I have visited this site for years and never had the bravery to sign up and talk about my journey - I find, like most of you...

Hi everyone, apologies if this article has already been discussed before, I'm new to the forum and I'm still working my way through the amazing amount of information here!

I've been diagnosed with evaporative dry eye (I presume this means MGD but my eye doctor didn't say), and due to how...
