Suggest Treatment For Dry Eyes
I have dry eyes and have been taking doxycycline, restasis, lotemax ointment at night, and applying heat to my eyes 2 x day. Even if all of that I can hardly keep my eyes open as the day progresses. I squint like crazy and use artificial tears every 10 minutes. I am so frustrated and do not know what to do next. I have seen 2 eye specialists, both say be patient. Any advice or thoughts? I really need help.

Well come to HCM
I appreciate your concern, if this is the allergic condition then you have to be patience because later or sooner it will be okay as long as the eye condition are concern eye examination is must, till then it can be managed on conservative way, anti-allergic eye drops can be used like Ketotifen, it might not be anything to worry else you could have been inform about it by eye surgeon hope this information helps.
