Hi, thanks for your post. Can I ask what the new eyedrop is you are taking that opens the eyelids and helps you see better?

Thanks!

@busterbrwn22 and all...It does work nicely. My eyes open much better and my sight is improved, clarity, range, and such. The double vision is still there, but less and less I can see through it or control it better.

Upneeq is the name. You can only get it from one pharmacy/company-RVL Pharmaceuticals, the manufacturer I suppose. It was $150 for a 30-day supply. I only ordered one time so far. Time to order again now. I will probably get prism glasses in the new year. Since wearing glasses from the young age of 7-8 I was thrilled to wake up and see clearly after cataract surgery several years ago. I still love not wearing glasses all the time. But, as the vision is decreasing, I'm running out of options. So, we'll cross that step when necessary, not today.

Hope all are doing well. I'm holding onto the improvements so far. Resting today after several days of higher activity. My poor watch is going crazy with my lack of steps today! It keeps reminding me to move...so I get up for some water or a snack...not quite what the poor watch has in mind...Tough. I now know and understand and really put into motion the 'rest as needed' philosophy. And, my life is greatly improved. I do recommend we all listen and hear our body telling us what it needs. It knows.

Enjoy the drops if you try them. Be well and be blessed. elizabeth
