Is there anything cheaper that’s works the same for sclerals?

Is there anything cheaper that’s works the same for sclerals?

I’ve had lacripure before and I hated it
And tangible clean is the only cleaning solution I’ve used. But all of this is getting so expensive and my pockets are starting to HURT bc of this. I truly wished insurance covered this. Any suggestions?

Allergy drops + sclerals

Any one using allergy drops with sclerals?

I read that some drops should be used in the am/pm before or after putting in sclerals. Due to the chemicals shouldn't be trapped behind the lens.

Then I read that some drops can be used while wearing sckerals. Such as:

Just looking for guidance. Right now my allergies are killing me and wearing my glasses is not an option with work

Glaucoma from KC and corneal transplant

I had a corneal transplant last year and was recently diagnosed with glaucoma. My eye pressure was around 24–25, and I’ve started pressure-lowering drops.

Has anyone else dealt with this after their transplant? Were you able to keep it under control with drops, or did you eventually need other treatment? Has it affected your graft or vision over time?

Honestly, it’s frustrating to go through the transplant and recovery, then have another eye issue thrown at you. Still wrapping my head around it.

Would appreciate hearing your experiences—especially from anyone who’s been managing both for a while. Anything you wish you’d known early on, or specific questions you’d recommend asking my ophthalmologist?
