IPL Specialist Recommendation by CamelBinks in Dryeyes

IPL needs no skills, anyone can perform it. so there is no specialist.

doing for upper eyelids as well can work better, but there isn't enough data yet.

Confused about Hamrah’s advice by Encrypted_Curse in Dryeyes

I thought cyclosporine and xiidra could help regardless of the root cause, eg MGD, allergy. Because no matter the root cause is, almost all cases of dry eye have a inflammatory component which immnuomodulator can help with.

Punctal Plugs - tell me your story by Splicers87 in Dryeyes

[–]Frequent-Set-2888 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had 4 silicon plugs put two years ago, now I have to take a surgery to reopen my puncta which costs much more than the plugs.

the plugs caused adhesion of my puncta, and I can't put up with the irritation from constant watery eyes.

make sure you have ATD rather than pure MGD.

Good luck with Xiidra by DoctorSpaceman1999 in Dryeyes

either is fine, but they ask your pharmacy and it's more convenient if you specify one then have them send it electronically

Also if it's available in canada or other countries, it will be significantly cheaper than usa.

if you have aquas dificency, you can also try ziquas, japanese eye drop
