Hi everyone,
I'm finding out more and more about this condition (MGD) every day, with my latest discovery being that I'll have good days and bad days. When I was first diagnosed I thought every day of my life was going to be horrible! My optometrist has described it like arthritis in that it's good days and bad days, and that the aim of the game is to have more good days than bad!
Is this everyone's experience? Periods of flare-ups and then better days?
My main question is, in say a given month, what's the ratio of good days Vs bad for you?
I'm very new to this and so far, I'm not having loads of good days. I'm going for IPL in a couple of weeks, which will be my first actual treatment for this (apart from usual heat masks and drops), so hoping for an improvement!
As always, thanks in advance. Your input is so invaluable to a lot of people!
