Hi,
I have been fighting meibomian gland dysfunction and possibly ocular rosacea. I don't completely buy the ocular rosacea. I have had treatment of: tobradex, lotamax, pred forte, restasis, heating, massage meibomian
Gland probing, diet changes, erythromycin, fish oil, flax seed, cipro, NSAIDs, and other medications. the air at my work is very dry with high air flow. out side of work I do well normally. I have found that my diet and environment make the biggest changes. Currently using ocusoft wipes and claridex wipes. Only when on a low carb and sugar diet have I seen improvements. This his been a very annoying problem, winters in the hospital have been dry and often painful. Currently keeping a log of all treatments on daily basis to see what works. Just ordered retaine Mgd drops to help get through work, haven't got them yet but hoping to get good relief. May need to get see fit glasses to get through the winter again this year. Has anyone used the seefit glasses with good results? would like to get feedback before spending 200 dollars, considering the seefit one's due to working in a professional role and don't want to look like a biker. This is the 3 rd year with very dry eyes and often having fluctuating levels of dryness. Have in the past used castor oil to relieve the irritation from the eye lids rubbing against the eye. It helped for a while but had hexane so my eyes didn't hurt but were still red. Stopped using the castor oil and had some redness relief for a couple months before getting bad again. Looking forward to sharing information with others and helping newbies to the problem.
