@sunnyflower, I just caught your post about vision problems from neuropathy. I know about dry eye syndrome and my ophthalmologist described how the partially dead nerves on my eyes lead to more cells dying from lack of moisture. There are machines that massage your glands, ointments, and fluid drops that keep the eye moist. You can try all of those remedies or just move to a rain forest. That is actually what my clinician told me.

He also told me that fires in your area invite particulates to fall into your eye. Tired of the fires, the evacuations, the anxiety while waiting to go back up the mountain to see what is left, I chose to move to MN. Much higher humidity and I have noticed the lack of eye irritation.

Guess what.....today the air around the river was filled with particulates from the CA fires. I wanted to scream "don't come here......... I moved here to get away from the particles."

Be safe, free, and protected from inner and outer harm.
