I originally read an article in the Wall Street Journal in 2018 about problems the cataract surgery & it referenced dr. Hamrah. I then googled his name & read papers he had given at opthomology symposiums. Also found a podcast he gave. I started the autologous blood drop treatment he recommended & had major improvement from severe pain to discomfort with a month. I have continued it on & off since & not sure if it still helps. I had stints put in my eyelids to improve tearing & that seems to help with dry eye symptoms. I tried a Pro Kera treatment about a year ago & it appeared to help with some of my discomfort symptoms. I take a steroid eyedrop if I am having a bad day. I always carry refresh eyedrops if my dry eye conditions act up it has been 6 years & my routine is doable with ok & uncomfortable periods. I monitor the medical papers for any new breakthroughs but nothing beyond what I have done to date has caught my interest. The lead research on this issue appears to be Tufts, Houston university, Utah university, California Davis university.

This is very useful information. Would you recommend autoglous blood drops over Prokera or both? Have you found other pain management approach?
