Hello Everyone, too bad we all have this problem but it is nice to not feel so alone after finding this forum to share ideas and experiences.
I am 53 years old, had LASIK in June 2010 here in Toronto, had numerous problems with it but the main problem is the Dry Eye that was caused by the surgery.
I use far too many drops for my liking (more so here in Toronto than Miami as it's more humid down there), I've tried temporary punctal plugs and was prescribed Restasis for a month but it didn't do anything (since then I read that you have to use Restasis for 3 months minimum to see if it works and the odds are 50% or something).
Have been offered to have the test to see if I would be a good candidate for this LIPIFLOW treatment that just started, but I don't trust my Surgeon anymore so I'm nervous to try anything new.
Hoping this dry eye will get better with time, will enjoy reading others experiences here......

I may get plugs soon but Im not too sure they will help, like restasis seems to be a mixed bag.
