Avatar m tn He perscribed more Pataday and some eye drops and told me in about a week i could resume with contacts that were dailys . A week after has passed and my eyes are getting red. Please help because i hate wearing my glasses and want to return to my contacts and this is not working .
Avatar f tn you may have to go to daily wear disposable contacts. You need to have your upper eyelids flipped and checked for giant papillary conjunctivitis from the contact lens.
Avatar f tn I am at my wits end. I have been getting eye infection after eye infection for over a year. At first I went to my regular doctor, then my optometrist and now an ophthalmologist. At first they were every 3-4 months, then monthly, and now they are occurring two weeks apart. Ophthalmologist thought it was my contacts but I've been wearing them for decades with no problems. I switched to dailys anyway and got an infection a week later.
Avatar f tn I am a contact lens wearer, and I continually getting eye infections, for about the past 2 years. (I've been wearing contacts for about 5 years.) My eyes get very red and become painful, and occasionally swell. I become very light-sensitive and my pupils constrict to the point where I can barely keep my eyes open. I have removed my lenses to see a mucus-like build up on several occasions. My doctor has prescribed me TobraDex in the past, which sometimes helps after a few days.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar f tn I tried a short course of steriod drops which relieved my symptoms, but they returned as soon as I stopped. Restasis for three months has offered no improvement. Pataday and Acular provide no benefit either. I am at a loss as to what to do next. I would greatly appreciate any direction or ideas.
Avatar n tn Also, just to clarify, I HAVE BEEN using ClearCare solution all year, but my eyes are still red.
19931670 tn?1486845153 In (I believe) June of 2016 I went to have my vision exam. I am 21 years old and have been using the same brand of contacts (Acuvue Oasys) since I was 12 years old. The optometrist insisted on me trying a new brand, the prescription she wrote was weaker than the one I already had and I told her I couldn't see, everything was blurry. She argued with me that it was in fact the right prescription and told me to try them for 2 weeks and come back.
Avatar f tn re: "GPC is not a surgical condition" I know it isn't usually treated that way, I just didn't know if any residual bumps could be gotten rid of somehow that way and hadn't asked an MD or researched it (beyond the initial hits that talk about drops).
Avatar m tn 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?
Avatar n tn m an allergic person, and I live in an area with plenty of pollen and no winter. Daily application of Pataday has been a godsend for me.
Avatar n tn I went to an opthamologist and and eye surgeon and no one has a cure. The glands in the inner corner of my eyes right below my brows have a little tiny round hard objects too. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks you in advance.
Avatar n tn Patanol is the oldest formulation of prescription olopatadine and there are newer formulations pataday and Pazeo. They require prescription.
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar f tn 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?
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar n tn I have a white discharge sometimes and they are dry as can be and burn. Should I go back to the eye doc and start the drop process again. With my history of AMD I am afraid not to go. I know however chances are its not related.
Avatar n tn I am 30 years old and I have phimosis for as long as i remember myself.Today i went to the urologist and for the treatment he recomended only circumsion.I told him about preputioplasty,but he never heard about it.Do you know any doctors in Los Angeles area,or any refferences.Google search didn't give any result.
Avatar n tn Saw your post and can help. Dr. Browning at HealthSource of Southlake. Helped lots w/ headaches and migraines.
Avatar f tn The itching is already become unbearable. I have run allergy tests with my allergist and dermatologist and have kept away from all things I am allergic to (which are many) but there has been no change in these reactions. I have now added a puffy, itchy lower lip to the problem. I do not know what is causing this and need help.
