2Hi guys,
Over the past couple of months, my dry eye has gotten worse. The doctors, last time i went to see them, gave me Hylo-Forte. That helps a little bit, but my eyes are still sore, inflamed, and when i finish work and go outside they often stream with tears.
I am lucky i guess, bcos when i wake up in the morning, that is my most comfortable. I can open my eye no problem. But, after 12pm my eyes start to sting, and they go red. The Hylo-Forte takes the edge off, but that's about all it does.
So, my question is, what is the usual progression in terms of medication? I presume it is something like this
1) Artificial Tears/lubricant in the first instance.
2) Then Steriods / Immune depressive eye drops if Artificial Tears don't work
3) Plug the tears ducts
Am I along the right lines?

My routine
Hylo-Forte x3 daily
Omega 3,6 & 9 4 capsules daily
