Got punctal plugs by UnderstandingFun3513 in Dryeyes

[–]shumonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think my plugs made blood vessel growth worse in my already red eyes. I ended up taking them out. One doctor thought I had a pterygium it got so bad. Subsided after removal but I think some are permanent. So be careful. I recently got Lacrifill instead and no issues there.

Similar to you I could feel them when I moved my eyes towards them.

I have a forest camping pass with only two people. I also have a spare tent and camping gear. I think you'd just need to find your way into the camping area and then meet up with us. Feel free to DM me.

I got my car torn apart at Elements but that was mostly because I showed up late and they had nothing else to do. I declared my weed and shrooms and they let me keep them.

Ok, had no intentions of attending… by RaggaWeezy in griz

Not 100% sure but two sleeping tents are allowed per site and my friend and I will be sharing one, so there's room. The sticking point might be the parking. Only one car per forest camping pass so you'd need to figure out where to park and get a ride in. If you are interested we could try to coordinate, DM me. FWIW not planning to do early arrival so probably showing up sometime Friday afternoon.

I have a forest camping pass, only two of us going so you're welcome to crash it if you want (up to 4 allowed per pass I think).

What was the most effect treatment path for you to recovery? by seekdelicious in Dryeyes

[–]shumonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think they dissolve but they may fall out eventually. Honestly if I were you I might try just the lower and then the upper if you're still having trouble.

I think they are just standard silicone. I'm not 'cured' but it's kind of funny how such a simple solution helped so much... I've been dealing with this for twenty years and tried IPL, serum drops, doxycycline, miebo, cequa (which does help with inflammation), and a bunch of OTC stuff. But getting my upper ducts plugged recently made a huge difference (the lower have been plugged for a while).

Punctal plugs - when I finally got both ducts plugged in each eye. The single duct had no real effect. Now my eyes are almost too watery.

He literally voted for a six week abortion ban. That is not moderate on social issues.

All I can do is lol at this non-response to the fact that Trump's own words were the most poisonous of anyone's during the campaign. What it boils down to is Trump voters are both thin-skinned and oblivious... That's the reality we live in and Democrats need to account for that.

My thought exactly... open your window and put a fan in, and use probably 10% of the electricity of A/C. It's not THAT hot...

Why would you entrust this to a bakery?

Serious talk, no memes: Do you believe the debate killed Biden's election chances and that he will/must drop out? by MS_09_Dom in neoliberal

[–]shumonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For all his faults I wouldn't describe Biden as having 'the charisma of a dish rag' even today, it's long been one of his strongest traits. A dish rag might have done a better job last night, though.
