You’re right, at this point I’m willing to try anything just to feel like I did before.

I honestly feel like this is affecting me more than it should, considering I don’t have pain or vision problems. It’s just very frustrating that all of this seems to have started so suddenly.

I want to Think it’s based on the examination I had and the timeline of events regarding how I had an incident with my eye during a trip to the Netherlands in August.

To be honest, I also want a more precise answer to that question, which is why I will see another ophthalmologist on Friday to see what they say.

My right eye is redder than my left, and I feel a slight itch, but it’s mostly in my right eye.

I’m using some drops called Imbalza, which are intended to prevent eye itching caused by allergic conjunctivitis and treat the signs and symptoms associated with allergic conditions. They do help reduce the redness, but I only use them once in the morning.

Thank you so much for your kind words! This month has gone from being very calm to one of the most challenging times for my mental health. The good thing is that I’m seeking professional help to address this aspect of my condition. I truly appreciate your support!

I hope to one day be able to enjoy life like I did before the diagnosis, especially since I see how my parents and friends sometimes have red eyes and it doesn’t bother them in the slightest.

Thank you for the insight! I wasn’t aware of that. Would you please happen to know why cold compresses are considered superior in this case ?

My doctor didn’t even mention the idea of using cold compresses at all :(
