  • HELP? I am in misery

    I have been in severe flare for 6 months now. Last time my eyes burned like this I was able to overcome it with Bandage lens, Doxy & Neo. Poly Drops. This round nothing seems to be helping theses Fire burning eyes. I am using the same regiment, and lost hope when I went to the cornea specialist and he said I don't know what else to do. I do hot compresses 3x a day. I need just a day of a little relief, or just knowing there is hope would help. I am in Calif, SF Bay area.

    Have you tried moister chamber glasses? It was the only thing that was able to help me in the short term, and I'm hoping I will find something else in the long run. After wearing them for a week I was in less pain. Also do you have a specific condition?

      Thank you for reply MGD30, Yes I have the glasses but have only been using in evenings. Did you wear them around the clock? I have had sjogrens for many years now, but never had such horrible time controlling it. I do use a humidifier in the home.

          Ladyjlz, when I first bought my glasses I would also only wear them in the evenings, by that time my eyes would already be really irritated and they wouldn't really help much. I was embarrassed to wear them in public or at work but then my eyes got so bad that I couldnt open one eye anymore so I had no choice. I started wearing them all of the time when I was awake. The effect wasnt immediate but within a week I could use both eyes at work and after a few weeks my eyes were better during the day. My eyes still bother me late in the evening and when Im on the computer but they are much better than before.

          Im not too familiar with sjogrens but if the issue is with your tears evaporating too quick then they should help.
