Restasis stop working?

[SjoGirl]

We heard a great presentation at the Sjogrens National Patient Conference about dry eyes. The opthamologist who spoke noted that there are three different types of dryness so it and Restatsis works on one -- which is lack of tears due to sicca symptoms. You might ask your Doc just what is causing your dryness.

Like others I have to use extra drops in addition to Restasis, particularly if it is windy or I'm working on a computer a lot (we tend not to blink much when looking at computer screens so eyes dry out more).

Thank you for all your comments. I went to the eye doc, my eyes are the same as back in March when he said my eyes were much better with restasis. He said that is probably the weather changes or allergies but restasis is still working.

I'm  glad to hear that some people are better with Restasis.  But not me, after 6 months my Opt' told me that there was no change in the dry spots on my eyes and to discontinue their use.

I'm sorry to hear that. Do you have some leftover drops for sale, cheap?

Please be aware that many, probably most, state laws prohibit the sale of prescription drugs between individuals.

I was joking. Should have put a smiley face.  Sharon
