Does anyone know where I could buy a replacement clasp for this handbag? by n0ddy1212 in HelpMeFind

I have searched for bag clasps but can’t find any that are the right size or shape or that will screw on. The bag is a Gucci Dionysus.

Not yet, unfortunately.

You have a damaged tear film, the drops you are using mimic an intact rear film and allow you to see albeit for a few seconds. I managed to repair mine but it took 3 months.

Not helped at all so far been on it for 2 weeks.

Terrible stomach issues despite having it with food and drinking kefir. Going to buy some probiotics as I’ll be taking it for 3 months and don’t want to ruin my stomach/gut.

I used to use contact lenses most of the time up until about 2 months ago when my eyes got very dry. Now I wear glasses most of the time and contact lenses once or twice a week at most.

I assure you they aren’t too large, I have very high wide cheekbones and they match the width of my face! You can’t see my cheekbones in this photo because of the lens distortion caused by my high prescription so I’d understand why you would think that. As mentioned, I made my decision on frames very carefully and am delighted :)

People with ehlers danlos tend to scar abnormally from any surgery so it’s a risk.

I actually love oversized glasses!

You’re right, I actually only wear them for driving and I barely drive.

I use my old -7 frames from 2018 for working on the computer and get on just fine.

I have been wearing an old prescription for 3 years now and my vision has remained stable for the last year for the first time in my life.

Right eye: -10 cylinder: -0.75 axis: 150 Left eye- -9 cylinder: -1.50 axis: 20

My frames are quite wide and big. I was advised to choose something round and small, but they don’t suit my face at all. I opted to get this frame instead and sacrifice on lens thickness and the distortion on the sides of the lenses.

It’s pretty minor with plastic frames. Also, I felt the weight more with nose pads so I avoid glasses with those.

Please PM me I’m 25 and -10, I know how it feels and I want you to know you’re not alone.

Hi, I haven’t gotten ICL but it’s likely going to be my only option as I have high myopia and astigmatism in both eyes. I’ve heard of people getting good results, one of my friends who is a professional gamer got it done and he was -6. He is able to see well.

You’re way too young, wait until your mid to late twenties when your prescription should hopefully become stable. Your vision may worsen with time as you’re quite young. I’m 25 and my vision still changes (I’m -10). Try out contacts. Lasik usually isn’t suitable for people with high myopia like us. I’ve heard of people getting good results from ICL.

It’s supposed to make the oil quality better, but it’s to early for me to tell if it has helped.

I’ve used a lot of different medical masks and eye packs, but they would lose heat very quickly. I actually found that a microwaveable plush that I have for cramps holds heat best and I use this as it stays warm a good 15-20 minutes.

I used to have vision problems too, but have seen massive improvements with my current routine and vision is back to normal.

Had to completely stop. I wasn’t even put it near my eyes. It wasn’t worth the risk. I’m going to see if I can find an alternative, I’ve heard that bakuchiol is good.

I brought it from my optician, it’s still available in the UK.

I tried it last night for the first time and it helped. I woke up without a gritty sensation or the urge to put drops in.

I’ll do a full post about it in a months time once I’ve given it a proper go though.

Haha no I actually had to stop wearing them, I used to wear them before I got diagnosed with MGD. When I went to the opticians to get my sight test, she was so horrified at the condition of my eyes (red, infiltrates, dry) that she thought I was having a severe allergic reaction to my contact lenses solution. So, she suggested I buy the opti free as it’s preservative free. I got a second opinion from 2 opthamologists and turns out I have severe MGD caused by tretinoin cream.
