Soooo I had the second part of my dry eye treatment on Saturday. I forgot to post about it, although the last part of it would have made a great scary Halloween story. :D
So she did the numbing drops, the eye shield - which is for the laser treatment, and the radio frequency treatment thing like she did the first time around.
But there was a new step added in at the end of the treatment. *In a spoooky voice* Squeezing the gunky oil (which was soften by the first parts of the treatment) out of the bottom eye lids with a special tool made to do that… :o
Did it hurt? Yes. It did a bit. :o
The reason I was thinking about it today? Because part of my right bottom lid (the outer end) is still feeling it. It’s bruised, red and still irritated, and it is hurting a bit. It’s gotten better in the last couple of days. I’m not surprised by it - she said the oil there was more gunky and needed more of a squeeze.
Yes. It sounds gross. :/
But - it’s working. I started noticing a difference after the first treatment, and am noticing a difference with this one too. :)
Aaaaaand the less scary part - I bought this new re-chargeable heated eye mask to help with the hydration and gunky oil issues - they sell them there. (To replace the heat by microwaving one that I have, but rarely use because I hate it). The re-chargeable mask feels amazing! It’s like a little heating pad for my face! (Well, for the eye area). :D
Did you really need to know all of this? Probably not! But now you do! *joy*

If I ever win the lottery, I’m getting you all the heated eye mask. :D

Completely separate - I voted today for the first Canadian entry in Eurovision. There are 2 artists I think would be super good for it (all of them are good, tho). I’m allowed to vote more than once (just have to wait a day), so I’ll vote for the 2nd one tomorrow. :D

I can sympathise. While not a major issue I have a cyst like something on the lower lid of my left eye that either leaves sharp rock hard discharge scratching my eyes or that ooze you described like someone buttered my eye overnight !!

Graham-S - that sounds so uncomfortable! You defo should see an optometrist about that - to make sure it’s not an infection or harming your eye *hugs* ♥️

I did, about a decade ago, but they were more worried by a test that suggested high eye-pressure and the risk of glaucoma. After a year of visits and tests at the eye department of the hospital I was told I'd just got really tough corneas - one more thing that's a bit thick then - and that was that....View More
