I have extremely dry eyes and have used all available remedies, including Restasis and XIIDRA. Finally , my eyes Doc suggested 2 remedies. Prokera and Autogolous Serum (this is made from your own blood). Have been on this for just 2 days (Serum) and am noticing less discomfort. My husband was freaked out about this.
Anyone else who has tried this method? I’m still having to use XIIDRA 2,times day.

@2021mymayoclinic2021 Sounds like the autologous serum eye drops are working for you, but your husband is very bothered by them. So much of medicine today is starting to use patients own tissues for treatments. And they are working without introducing a foreign element into the system. Can i ask what your husband is freaked out about?
