never loose hope - wanted to share a small win

I have suffered from dry eyes for the last year. It became unbearable during the summer months, when i was putting in a drop every hour. I went to see an optometrist, who put me on Ikervis once a day.

Two months ago, I went to see the Odyssey in theatres, and I was in pain the whole time, putting in eyedrops every 15 minutes or so.

Today, I went to see the Odyssey again. I did not experience any burning or photosensitivity. I put in drops thirty minutes before, and did not put use drops again until two hours after the movie. I truly believe that Ikervis, eyelid wipes and MaquiBright supplements have helped.

This is such a small thing, but I felt like I was slowly getting my life back, since I was heartbroken that I was unable to watch movies, my favourite thing in the world. For a while I was unable to even leave the house.

Never loose hope, I love you guys
