Just got over a head cold for the past 3 weeks. Now that the congestion is almost gone and I'm not taking the Claritin antihistimine (which was drying but tolerable), I find my daily routine for controlling my Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) and dry eyes is not really working as well. My eyes are burning, dry and irritated even though I'm doing:
* hot facials twice a day,
* Azasite drops 1/day,
* Systane Balance 4X/day,
* OTC drops like Systane Ultra and Oasis as needed, sometimes every hour.
Am I in something like a flare? Is this temporary? Anyone have a reaction like this?
Am confused - called my eye doc but she could not offer any more suggestions or treatments. Am now looking around to see another eye doc in the area, if I can find one and also get an appointment reasonably soon.
