Many said they have tried everything and still suffer.
But do you really have an ''accurate'' diagnose with reliable/objective testings
(trial & error can NOT stop the progression) such as
gland function/images (doctor expresses glands see if 'clear' oil comes out),
osmolarity, MMP-9 (for the inflammation level), lid layer thickness, blinking,
Tear Meniscus Height (for tear volume), dyes/stainings.
Did your doctors check inflammation (bacteria/demodex?, lid margins, lids (if sealed?), lift up upper lids??
Comestic, make-up, skin care products: pay attention to bad chemicals and effective/safe lid hygiene

or
https://www.ophthalmologymanagement....o-conspirators
Prof./Dr Milner mentionos possible co-conspirators are (which often doctors miss them):
Conjunctivochalasis (CCH)
Superior Limbic Keratoconjunctivitis - SLK
Superficial Punctate Keratitis SPK
Allergic or Atopic Conjunctivitis
Chemical Toxicity (like hair spray, make-up)
Medicamentosa (toxic medication use)
Mucus Fishing Syndrome
Contact Lense Related Toxicity
Floppy Lid Sydrome

another one is even more informative/interesting (by the same dr) - as it includes treatment options!
