Degraded vision

Every day I'd experience something different from that list On really bad days I'd have a combination of several items.

After 2 years of dealing with this and countless visits to 6 different eye doctors - nothing worked just yet. Then I was going to start taking Restasis (http://www.restasis.com/default2.htm), which is supposed to increase tear production in the eye and can take up to 6 months before it becomes effective. I actually have the bottle right here, but haven't used it yet.

It is all gone now, most likely thanks to the Omega-3 that I constantly feed into my body

From all the readings that I've done (and I read A-L-O-T), I've yet to read about a single dry eye. None of the articles/resources I read ever mentioned having the problem only in one eye. If this is your problem - it may be very rare. I'd go see a doctor if regular over-the-counter lubricating drops don't help the eye.
i got a few of those symptoms, sometimes bad sometimes mild and not everyday but at least 4 days a week. i went to eye doctors too and tried the over the counter stuff which didnt help.

ill check out the omega 3

thanks for the info - of all places gfy
