@lioness hi oh I never thought about the weather... our homes in winter heated inside and windows closed the air is dry but i have tried various humidifiers then read they are supposed to be cleaned out with bleach every couple of weeks etc., as get mold in ...same as Brita water jugs! some days just cant do it... i have been closing my bedroom door and opening window a crack and its about 16C in here ... i think i saw something on internet about their implanting a little something or other under the lower lid to secrete moisture into eyes but I would hazard a guess its not too simple to have done. Wonder for how many centuries humans have suffered from dry eyes or is it a recent thing.... oh well, give me something to look up on internet today! Like you, having glaucoma , and am not sure but I also have floaters, would be nice to find something that works 100 per cent eh? Even my migraines are ocular and I have flashing lights about 20 minutes before, but for past 20 years not the pounding headache so have to be grateful for small mercies! Thing is last four migraines during recovery my memory is going regarding names of things and its a bit of a worry. On and on it goes..... and reading of what a lot of people here are living through I don't know how they get by.... am afraid I haven't coped well the last 3 years. Anniversary today - 59 years in Canada from uk when i was 18 !! Love Canada and my Canadian children but....... (fill in the gap) Take care everyone.... J. snow's almost gone... yeah!!

@lacy2 I use Ointment at night There are alot from diff co.but I like Gen teal eye ointment I keep a window cracked open at night Fresh air is important since houses are closed up during winter What does Dr say about your ocular migraines? Have you seen your opthalmologist and a neurologist? I googled and saw certain foods can add to these headaches I'm sure you have googled about ocular migraine the article I read said to see a neurologist also Your to young to have these problems Bless you do the best you can
