on the bright side
I have two things to be thankful to God for about my eyes recently.
I haven't worn my mini-scleral lenses in a while because they just don't fit quite right yet. I can go to TX and try again as time allows, so I haven't given up on that.
However, I still have great news.
On March 6, I got plugs. The relief began immediately. (Prior to that, I was using sometimes more than TWO!! of the 1 ounce bottles of theratears or optive a month). I was still very light sensitive after getting plugs and it still took 2 weeks for the carpet burn sensations to die down. I was still hoping for more relief, although I was using way fewer eye drops.
On April 10, I got some Dr. Holly drops in the mail and I set aside all the other OTC drops I was using.
So, now today is May 5. I have not been having any eye pain. I have not been having problems with extreme light sensitivity. In fact, I have actually left the house a few times without sunglasses. What???? And I have been leaving the house without eyedrops.
I am not a researcher, so I can't say, "the drops did it, and the plugs did it." But I do know that I am certainly feeling much, much better. I don't think I see myself going back to any typical eyedrops because I have done so much better on the Nutratears, etc.
My vision has also improved, fewer aberations, better clarity.
As to the lenses, well, I am interested to see how my improved eyes will do with better fitting lenses.
