BLURRINESS/BOTOX/EYE OINTMENT?


Posted by June in Toronto ® (June Floyd,June in Toronto), Jul 01,2001,13:59   Archive
Hi everybody, I see there has been a discussion on this subject.

For me blurriness always increases after botox injections and then continues somewhat less as I continue to use the night-time ointment and eye drops. I use an eyelid cleanser to remove the cream in the morning (I find even Johnson's baby shampoo stings my eyes). I also have `floaters' in my eyes (it comes with age I guess!!!) - so the combined effect is that I don't see very well at anytime. However, I continue this regime as I believe not using the night-time cream and daytime drops might cause greater problems, such as glaucoma, as stated by the opthalmogist who checks my eyes every 4 months. Its a personal decision and we all have to do what we think is right for our individual circumstances.

Take care

June in Toronto

Floaters are little black specks that just tend to float around in your field of vision, usually several per eye. Very annoying, but I'm told they are nothing to be concerned about. ???? Right?????

You're right Sally. If anybody wants any more information, they can click on this site and it will tell you a little more about the little rascals which are generally a part of the aging process but not always. There are many different places on the internet where you can go for information on them. I just checked one real quick.
