    I’m currently going through this.. I’m literally getting depressed over this. I have very dark circles under my eyes and I can not cover them because of my watery eyes. I always get people telling me that I need to sleep
    More, why am I crying, what’s wrong, are you ok!! It’s never ending.

    Hi Michael, I’m an optometrist practicing in Canada. In busy practice, it’s challenging to explain to patients the causes of their problems in the hope that they would be more compliance with the treatment plans. I love that your video have an overview and diagrams to explain the problem all in a short and sweet ~5 minutes video! I’ll refer patients to watch your videos for educational purpose. Keep producing these concise and informative videos! Thank you!

    My right eye waters constantly. When I wear makeup I have to keep a small makeup sponge near to dap the tears. When I yawn the tears flow. I think my issue is a combination of dry eyes and allergies.

    Hi doc, I've had a tearduct surgery on the right eye after having a "smart" plug stuck in there. That surgery was back in 2015. Ever since then, my right eye started tearing insanely. At first the doctor told me because my tear ducts new and the hole had become huge after the surgery. But the size didn't change and I still tear only on the right eye. Whenever its windy, when I'm extra tired, when I'm feeling sick, when I'm focusing on something, when it's cold, my right eye always tears so much that I could even fill a shot glass.
    I have the dry eye syndrome but according to many ophthalmologists, my right eye isn't particularly more drier than the left. So they don't know the cause, which means they can't fix. What could be the cause of this? What do you suggest I try?

    Thank you Dr Michael for your advice, I had lasik surgery in March, during the day and constantly using systane eye drops I can read from far, but when night hits, my vision gets blurry, I’ve talked to my surgeon but she says it could take up to a year for my eyes to settle. I’m wondering is if this is true- what’s your opinion?

  • @roseyc.5846
    @roseyc.5846 Год назад +3

    Dr. Chua: I respect my opthalmologist; he's good. He performed laser cataract surgery on me in 2017, eliminating my dependence on contacts for years. I can now see long distance, which is great. However, as far as dry eye, all he recommends are warm compresses and PF lubricant drops..not much help. I've tried lid scrubs..nothing. it makes me uneasy to consider I may have blepharitis or eye mites (yikes!). I wish I was in LA, but, I live in NY. Any suggestions? I really enjoy your channel and find it comforting. Thank you. Rosemarie

    • @MichaelRChuaMD
      @MichaelRChuaMD  Год назад

      Hi Rosemarie, it’s hard to give effective suggestions without an examination. Has your ophthalmologist considered prescription eye drops such as Restasis or Cequa? Or perhaps punctal plugs? If there’s a component of blepharitis or ocular rosacea, perhaps eye ointments or doxycycline? Treating dry eye can be a challenge and sometimes requires a few rounds of trial and error before settling on a regimen that works for you. Good luck!

    Do you have any thoughts on collagen and silicone punctual plugs? Are they bad, good, dangerous? Are they okay for someone in there 20s?
