To loop back. The dr said no nerve damage. I had a baseline from going to her before and nothing changed in vision, nerves, eye movement, eye parts, etc. It was a relief.
Oddly though one thing that did change that I didn’t have before is now I have blepharitis.
Overview:
Most of the time, blepharitis happens because you have too much bacteria on your eyelids at the base of your eyelashes. Having bacteria on your skin is normal, but too much bacteria can cause problems. You can also get blepharitis if the oil glands in your eyelids get clogged or irritated.
So she prescribed an eye lid scrub that can be used on sensitive skin and eyes like mine once or twice a week that I close eyes, rub on eye lids and rinse off in shower. So that is a new post-Covid symptom I never had a month after Covid. Sharing in case others notice more oily eye lids after Covid. Not advocating for a product, but for reference in case it’s helpful she gave me Ocusoft which is over the counter and you can get at optometrist (but also Target or Amazon I noticed).
I hope the Ocusoft lid scrub works well for you. My eye doctor recommended it to me a few years ago. After using it for awhile, I ended up having a reaction to it. My eyelids became red and itchy. I began using Theratears SteriLid antimicrobial eyelid cleanser. It comes in a spray bottle. I dip clean cotton swabs in it and clean each eyelid. You don't have to rinse it off. It has been working well for me, no bad reactions. I use it daily. I thought I would suggest it to you, just in case.
