I got antibiotic steroid eye drops and used them for 10 days. I also was prescribed Pataday once a day before bed, and I use over the counter Alaway once or twice during the day, too. The eczema went away, but bags didn't completely go away but they improved. Every few days I use SteriLid in the shower to make sure my eyes and lashes are completely clean, and I never use gel eye drops anymore, only preservative free tear drops for moisturizing if needed.
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?
Look into allergy drops like Pataday, frequent use of preservative free artificial tears, and possibly punctal plugs and restasis drops long term. Part of your problem may also be from using Opcon (a vasoconstrictor) for too long. You can get a lot of rebound redness when you stop it. I've taken posts from people who said it tooks months and months to be able to get off the stuff without lots of redness problems. Consider getting a second opinion.
I had lasik back in 02 & never had a problem--had white eyes & never dry. Just used OTC generic artificial tears here & there. Then in 5/08, I develop. red eyes & had a prominent vessel in my left eye. Eye dr. said it was strain from studying for my MBA and should go away on its own. He took eye tests and put me on restasis. The redness went away but the prominent vessel stayed. It's still there to this day & the eye dr.
This made just the corner red and irritated. Then the skin started cracking in the corners. I was given Pataday and antibotic ointment to put on these cuts and was told it was allergy related. This didn't help the problem.
I waited a while to see if the eye would clear on it's own. It didn't. It got WORSE AND WORSE AND WORSE. It is now swollen all the time. The swelling varies in severity throughout the day.
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.
What else can I do?
I moved to Louisiana in the USA and I got terrible eye allergies, Very Very Puffy, itchy, Red eyes for days, I can varely open my eyes sometimes.
I already got the vaccine shots "all of them" "for months", I tried Pataday, Optivar, Vigamox, Astropo, Veramyst, Zyrtec, Benadryl, Naphcon A, all together! by doctor prescription, and my allergies are worst than ever.
I did the tea bags, the ice spoons on my eyes, everything at home is against allergens.
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 have chronic eyelid margin swelling in the outside corners of both of my eyes and it extends 2 inches beyond the eye lids towards the cheek. There is pain, inflamation, and itching in the outside corners of both eyes for the past several months mostly in the skin area. Recently, my eyes have also started to burn and when they burn severely, my eye lashes fall. My eyes are always tired and I've lost the fresh look.
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?
I have tried many preservative containing drops however they seem to cause a bad reaction. Would Hycosan preservative free drops be worth a try or do you have any other suggestions of drops i could try. They would have to be preservative free not vials and be a liquid not a gel.
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.
Hi the eye drops l take for Glaucoma ( Azarga) have the preservative Benzalkonium Chloride 0.1 mg/ml in them, what if any are the side effect of this preservative and is it just an irritant or could over 5 years of daily use actually do harm to the eye or make eye pressure worse?
Is there an overuse issue? I have been using only preservative free drops but every hour 2 to 3 drops per eye.
She said not to use more than 4-5 preservative drops a day, After that, switch to preservative free. Said it was fine to mix them (or alternate them) or just use preservative free drops if I am having a bad dry eye day. I use optive for both.
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.
So I usually purchase Clear Eyes preservative free lubricating drops for dry eyes. This comes in a single bottle that has a filter on it that supposed to keep it free from contaminants. I go through one of these bottles in a month. I ran out last week and the store was currently out of stock. I went ahead and tried the Genteal Tears preservative free drops that come in individual vials (36 in the box). The instructions say one time use and then discard.
Doubtful you are allergic to systane (disapearing preservative or preservative free varieties) or refresh pm (preservative free.) Believe it or not sometimes the contact lens can make certain corneal problems actually "feel" better while they continue to get worse - the lens can act like a bandage over corneal irritations or scratches - while making eye very susceptible to infections or keratitis.
When my penis in her mouth with preservative I came. Then she removed the preservative and we separated. I never knew oral sex has risky in respect of HIV and other STD's before this event. I checked many Internet articles and I'm very confused and worried. So, what is my risk? Please help me!
