Hey everybody,
I am desperate ! I cannot live like this anylonger, Iīm constantly depressed because of these huge red veins in my eyes. They never go away, they just swell even more during the day and then those spots where the veins are, really hurt. I cannot do anything, and I even avoid doing anything, because, whenever I think about doing something or going somewhere, I immediately draw back, because I know how bad I will feel when my eyes will start burning like hell and how I will just want to run away and hide because of how I look.
I avoid going out, I avoid people, I just hide.
This has been going on for more than two years now, and I donīt know why I should have to live a life like this. I donīt want to. Things just donīt change, and everything I get from doctors is the dry eye diagnosis and the tipp to use moisturizing drops.
I once found a "laser specialist" who promised that he would coagulate my veins, and after that, everything would be gone. I told him, I just care about the real big ones, I wanted those to go away. So, after several laser sessions ( where he lasered some very small veins) the big veins were still there and he suddenly told me, that he will not laser those because they are scleral veins, that they were always there . I just never realized.. (how I hate that, when eye doctors try telling me they were always there..as if I am stupid, or have a perception disorder..) and if he would coagulate them, they will only appear again, because in my case itīs caused by my genetic vulnerability..
What an idiot ! I explained to him that I used these bloody whitening drops and befor using them I had no veins at all, I just used them in the beginning after long nights , after drinking alcohol etc, just because I wanted some slight irritations to disappear from time to time.
I got dependend on these drops, I didnīt realize that the reason my eyes were suddenly getting more and more red were these drops in fact.
After about half a year of daily use of these devilish drops I was left with these big ugly veins and pain all over my eyes. I finally realized what was going on and immediately threw those drops away. But too late.
So here I am, more desperate and fed up with life than ever. I donīt have any future plans, Iīm just embarrased and disturbed, why is there no one to help ?
Iīm making a last attempt. Iīve reading some posts from other red eye sufferers, and it seems there are some laser specialists out there in the world that offer laser treatment for red veins in the eyes.
I just donīt know where they are.
So please, anybody here in this forum who can provide a link, an adress, anything about an eye doctor that performs this kind of laser surgery, please let me know about !
I donīt want every tiny vein in my eyes to disappear, I just have some big veins coming from the sclera in the middle of the exposed nasal parts of my eyes. They are really prominent and they really hurt, I guess itīs because they constantly trigger nerves in the surrounding tissue, but I donīt know.
Please, anybody who can help, let me know !
Thank you so much,
Maya
