Hi, there,
I'm 27 and I'm new here, I have suffered from dry eye about 4 month and I think it is caused by sleeping drug(I take them for about 7 month, and quit it now,but it just doesn't go better.)
My schirmer is only 2 and I feel my lids stick to my eyes every time when I blink !And I also feel the burning sensation all the time! I can barely open them when I am out! I think it is called aqueous deficiency because the doctor didn't tell me about MGD or other disease.I linger in the forum crazily to find something that would relieve me.
Yesterday, my doctor told me that dry eye is an irreversible process ! it may means I'll never get better ? I'm so depressed about that and cried for hours. I looked sick and just can't do anything.
what I'm doing now is
1. Use restasis twice a day
2. Use eye drop when I feel extremely dry,I use refresh plus(But I think it only help for a short time and then my eyes get drier!)
3. warm and cold compress (I prefer cold),maybe I don't need to do them if I'm not MGD ??
4. Check if I have SJS (the report will come out in Friday)
What I want to try :
1.tranquileye (I bought one today from internet)
2.goggle(I really don't want to wear them )
3.omega3 and5
4.scleral lenses(I need to fly to Hong Kong to get one, and I don't know if they really help ?)
Do I miss something that I should do ? What do people always do to treat with time aqueous deficiency problem?
Should I get a pair of scleral lenses ?
Is dry eye an irreversible process ? which means my cells which tears are dead and I would never get my tears back ?
I feel Sooo sad and need some advice...
