Hello everyone,
First time posting and long time visitor.
I have been dealing with mucus build up in the corner of my eyes for the past 8 years. I'm 24 years old and have been to multiple ophthalmologist.
I've been prescribed everything from restasis, doxy, lotemax, preservative free eye drops, alrex, plugs, omega 3... etc.
I also have chronic inflammation in the corner of my left eye and outside portion of my right eye.
The veins are more of a cosmetic issue, but the persistent eye mucus is maddening. I have to extract the mucus every 2-3 hours with tissue.
The only thing that semi-helps is Patanol eye drops in conjunction with NAC supplements (stomach aches galore!).
Any ideas on what could be the cause? I have gotten the whole gamut from dry eyes, allergies, to your eyes are fine.
Side note: surfing, no sleep, and drinking exacerbate the veins and redness to the point I have to take Advil to deal with the pain. I also tried going cold turkey on everything, but the eye pain is too much to handle on a daily basis.
Any advice would be much appreciated! The co-pays are killing me as I'm still in school.
