I had upper/lower bleph done 10 weeks ago today. I had some dry eye issues in the beginning which got better for awhile. I went to an opthamologist that said I had "reduced tearing" and told me to try drops a couple times a day. He said this should resolve over time - no other issues. He even looked under lid to make sure no stiches left behind. I have tried using 5 diff types of drops but all seem to make my eyes feel more irritated. I wear contacts appx 8 hours a day. I have tried drops for contacts (when in) as well as non-contact drops when wearing glasses. Nothing is helping! My eyes feel sticky, burning and have some red lines that weren't there before bleph. Why is this happening, how long will it last, and what can I do???
