(Part 2) Top products from r/lasik

I had similar issue but its been about 4+ years & mine has improved a lot. I was on restasis & over the counter eye drops.

I highly recommend you use eye heat mask once a day & every morning when you take a shower... walk up to shower head and let your eye lids feel the force of warm/hot water. I do this for about minute each eye. It will massage the eye & improve your tears. It has become my routine because you take shower every morning anyways. This trick is similar to treatment called Lipoflow for dry eyes. This is from lot of research I have done on reddit & other online resources.

Also get Bilberry its natual for dry eyes.

I've read that it takes a lot of time. At least wait a few weeks to a month before you get too nervous. I'd say at 6 months, your eyes will be at their best.

You should ask your doctor if vision vitamins will expedite the healing. These things make my vision super crisp:

Thanks I’m gonna check those out. I bought these a couple months ago and finally started using them today. They are super ridiculous so I’ll prob buy those until I get a nice pair. Want to try to get insurance to cover a pair. https://www.amazon.com/Uvex-Blocking-Computer-SCT-Orange-S1933X/dp/B000USRG90

I think I know what Addipaks is, and I've used them in a pinch before when I needed to change out my contacts and my eyes were dry. They don't feel as moisturizing, but that's just my experience.


I'm looking at my box of artificial tears and it looks like they have polyethylene glycol or carboxymethylcelluose in them, and the percentage of sodium chloride is lower.


Systane, Refreshe, Blink, Bausche and Lomb, TheraTears, etc. are all brands of artificial tears that you can look into. I'd pick whichever feels best for you, and is cost-effective.


I tried Systane and didn't like the feeling, and prefer Refreshe Plus. I get a 100-pack of Refreshe Plus artificial tears (single use vials, but you can recap and get like 3 uses of them) for like $16-20 at Costco. I think it's similar price at Sam's Club. On Amazon.com, they're $25: https://www.amazon.com/Refresh-Lubricant-Lasting-Protection-Moderate/dp/B000VR5W0A/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1536595396&sr=8-2&keywords=refresh+plus+single+use. You can also get the store brands (CVS, Walmart, etc.) for much cheaper.

Yes. I am using this ones at the moment Blink Tears Sterile Single Use Vials, 25 Count, 0.01 Fluid Ounce Each https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001BJ6OCM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_2uTTDbWMRS982

But I feel like their effects don’t last long enough as I would like

I am one month in, and both of my eyes are still puffy, swollen, and sensitive to touch or any sort of pressure. My eyelids were also a little tough to open in the morning, and I was completely dried out. My LASIK center suggested Refresh Plus Gel Drops before I go to sleep. That is now working for me. I can now sleep with a fan or A/C blowing once again and my eyes are easier to open in the morning.

I personally been using these the last few months https://www.amazon.com/Prince-Peace-Instant-American-Ginseng/dp/B001QVFI6S/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=american+ginseng+root+tea&qid=1554758034&s=gateway&sr=8-8

and also some from the local market that my mother in law has bought for me but I have no link for it.

I also combine it with a drink comprised of this,

It's mostly not for eye health but overall health but it has helped me tremendously when combined with ginseng.

​

I usually do green tea packet with teaspoon of tumeric powder, teaspoon of psyllium fiber, 1/2 tablespoon of brain octave, half scoop of green powder, small slice of butter and add hot water to mix with the ginseng.
