Though the ophthalmalogist didn't have a clue what to do about my major complaints yesterday (or even a good idea of what I was trying to describe, though I give him some credit for trying), I do have a new diagnosis: Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), also helpfully known as Chronic Dry Eye. Heh. I'd mentioned this as a mild problem, but apparently mine's bad enough that they think I need immunosuppressant eye drops to prevent damage or something.
So anyway, here I'm looking at a web site for Restasis, looking at the pages written for professionals because I'm curious that way. And under "Setting Expectations" there appears the following statement: "Chronic Dry Eye isn’t like a headache, which you relieve with an aspirin until it goes away. Chronic Dry Eye is a chronic condition, and you need to manage it on an ongoing basis."
::cough:: Have these people ever heard of migraines?
Update later, preferably when enough caffeine is in my system to counteract the sleep dep. due to last night's Extreme Thundering Event complete with Bonus Repeatedly Exploding Transformers.
