My MD has a found lab in her town that is willing to compound them. I spoke with the man doing it today and he has made exactly on batch for one patient. But he was very, very open and really nice.
Of course, the expense is pretty significant and totlally out of pocket. Never mind a whole morning from work to go to my eye md's, have them draw the blood, spin it down and pack it on ice so I can then head over to the lab and wait for an hour or so while he makes the drops. He figures I would need to do this every two weeks.
My eye MD also did not think this would significantly reduce my use of OTC tears so it's an extra expense, not a swap.
Out of my price range I'm afraid.
