Hi. I was wondering if i could use Pataday if i have ocular herpes? Are there any risks that i should be aware of when using Pataday?
Zaditor is NOT the same as Patanol or Pataday. My doctor told me not to mix and match. NOW AARP Rx is sending me a generic Olopatadine HCL by Rising Labs and I am paying the same price as the Brand Patanol which works great for me. I live in NE NJ..
I believed it was pink eye and when i went to the doctor they prescribed Pataday as well as some other drops i would apply 4 times a day. My eyes got better and i did not wear my contacts at all. They said to only put your contacts in after 2 days of my eyes bein completely white .
Weeks passed and i did that. Then i noticed my eyes started getting red again. Not itchy or hurting just red. So about 3 weeks later i got checked out again.
I was scared and revisited the doctor. The doctor prescribed me Pataday. On using Pataday for a day, I was afraid if it could resolve the issue. I took a second opinion from a diff. Doctor. The doctor prescribed me Lotopred, Ikul, Systane ultra eye drops for every four hours a week and said not to wear lenses for 10 days. I followed the instructions and my eyes got back to normal.
I went to my opthamologist. The doctor prescribed Tobramycin and Pataday. Using both eye drops the condition got better with just a bit in the right eye.
My opthamologist took me off the antibiotic and told me to do the Pataday (allergy drops). Which I have. Yet, my right eye is tearing excessively and my right eye is tearing a little bit. The inner tear duct is very itchy and sting at times.I already got another opionion and was told that it's allergies.
I suffer from the exact same thing with the inside corner of my eye driving me crazy at times it itches so bad. What has helped me is Rx eye drops called Pataday. It is for itchy allergy eyes, and sometimes I put a drop or two on the end of a q-tip and dab it in that corner of my eye and sometimes I put the drop directly into the eye. Works wonders. Whether it is allergy or irritation of some sort, the drops take the itch away for me. I hope this works for you.
t tell if it has added to already existing discomfort. Have beenn Restasis, Alrex , Pataday and now Muro ointment. I see a well known Corneaologist and he wants me to have the Amniotic Membrane Transplant especially now that I have developed the eye cysts. I don't know what to do -- wld like other opinions on this procedure and its history on long term resolution of Conjunctivochalsis. Also, are my cornea issues related to the extended use of Restasis? Alrex & Pataday?
An Alcon representative called me on Wednesday, August 20, 2008, concerning my surgery and the implant of the Restor lens. When I told her of the terrible effects of the implant, my blurred vision and the black flickering line I now see she actually suggested I go to the drugstore and buy reading glasses!
I just spent $4650.00 to improve my vision and the Alcon representative told me to go the drugstore and buy reading glasses!
Hagen - thank you - I will see someone else - should they be experienced with Alcon and how they fit in the eye? Is it possible that the vessel rupture is the result of whatever is causing so much ongoing discomfort? Is there anything you can think of that could cause this? It is not just when focusing -it always stings/burns in the upper right area of my eye and almost always feels like something is in my bottom lid .
Systane, Blink, Refresh, Soothe and something for allergies like Patanol or Pataday. If your allergy is bad enough to require a steroid then lotemax, or pred mild would be better choices.
495 patients — 339 with a multifocal IOL (AcrySof model MA60D3 or SA60D3, Alcon) and 156 with a monofocal lens (AcrySof model MA60BM, Alcon). " These are ReStor lense, I think.
I went to my Eye MD. Today and e said that the Alcon Acrysof IQ Toric Iol for Astigmatism would be a good choice for me sence I have 1.25 Astigmatism in my right eye. I had the Crystalens HD 500 put in my left eye two years agao but I have 1.25 Astigmatism in my left eye also and I need eather LRI or Laisk done and I would need glasses any way to read so why spened the money if it don't work.
Here in Chicago, Alcon seems to have captured most of the market for IOLs, and all of Alcon's lenses are acrylic. (Maybe Alcon does better marketing in this area, who knows?) I have AcrySof IQs because my surgeon used a surgery center that only stocked Alcon lenses. Personally, I don't think that the AcrySof IQ is better than the Tecnis or SofPort.
I have one lens replaced with the Alcon sn60wf & now several years later it is time for the other eye.With the alcon eye - I have some difficulty discerning shapes only in a dimly light room but night driving is good. In a room with small amts of light coming in the window - the Alcon eye can barley see- but the natural cataract eye discern shapes easily.
I was diagnosed with GPC and recently ended the use of steroid drops. Ever since I've stoped the steroid drops, I've woken up with crusty, glued eyes. Could the lingering GPC be causing this? I've been doing artificial tears multiples times a day and Pataday drops 2x a day. I have a follow up appointment soon, I'm thinking about trying to move it up if this is something serious.
New Term Glistening: Acrylic foldable IOL's the paper says AAO New Orleans supplement
I found an article by William Trattler called Glistenings visually relevant. Of which I cannot find the website now. But in it "The AcrySof Lens material (Alcon) is particularly susceptible to glistenings. Incidence rates have published ranging between 11% to 60%. Waite and colleagues not glistenings might impact high spatial resolution contrast sensitivity.
The rates seem low to me.
He said my right eye has so little astigmatism that it would not benefit from an Alcon ACRYSOF® Toric lens and that a "standard" IOL (covered by Medicare) would suffice. (When I decide to have my left eye done, I should get the Toric to correct its more severe astigmatism.)
I see aspheric monofocal IOLs recommended here by Dr. Hagan and others.
My right eye implanted lens is Alcon Acry Sof IQ, it gives me image size bigger and closer than my non-surgical left eye no matter I wear -2.0 for distance or nothing for reading vision. (My good left eye wear -6.5 contact lens). 7 weeks later after surgery, my 2 eyes are still fighting.
1. Does Alcon Acry Sof IQ's brand cause more image size difference problem than other brand?
2. Since if I only use right eye, I feel dizzy and right eye don't want to focus long time.
