  • Pros and Cons of Plugs

    Hi All,

    I have Odyssey plugs inserted into both my lower lids for a week now, i noticed a slight improvement, normally after a day work @ 6pm, my eyes are tired and very dry. But now with the plugs in, @ 6pm it is much better.

    Currently on a combination medication of Refresh plus (one tube per day) + Systane (4 times per day/ 4hrs interval) + Retasis (4 times per day/ 4hrs interval) + Duratears (night)


    Q1.) I noticed with the plugs in, Retasis seems to burn more, is that a good sign? hence i need to use more Refreshplus also. My doctor has advised me to apply Systane 1st, 5mins later followed by Retasis.


    On top of this, i have the followings questions on plugs.


    Q2.) is it true that with plugs, it is easy to trap dirts? so far anyone experienced this?

    Q3.) with the plugs in, should i avoid doing extreme sports to prevent the plugs from dropping out?

    Q4.) what is the likelihood the plugs will go down into the ducts <touchwood>?



    Much appreciated for any kind replies
