"Close Enough - Tiger" ink on paper, copyright Erin Rogers PickeringLast week I went for my yearly eye check; to get my perscription tweaked and order new lenses. My Doctor commented immediately that my eyes didn't seem nearly as dry as past visits. I wear gas permemable (hard) lenses.
Last year he gave me a prescription to help my tear ducts produce more tears as the situtation was getting worse and worse and I was having trouble wetting my lenses. It was right about the time I went gluten-free. On a lark I googled dry eyes and auto-immune conditions. And what do you know? Sjorgens described me to a tee.
I put the presription aside and rolled the dice... I was betting the removal of gluten was going to improve the situatuon. Guess what?
After telling him I chose not to take the meds he asked if I was doing anything diffferent. "I went gluten-free... Celiac is an auto immume disease and so is sjorgens". Doc said keep it up - will be interesting to see if it continues to improve.
Yes it will. The changes and improvements keep coming and keep surprising me.

I used to suffer from the same problem. Dry eyes are very common, but its causes vary. When I encountered severe dryness of my eyes, I tried to put eye drops but unfortunately, it didn't work. So my wife advised me to see one of these optometrists in Indianapolis. It wasn't that I was all worried about it, but it affected my performance at work.
I remember once a patiente who came to Viagra Online labs looking for a treatment for dying his eyes, we talk to him and we told him that the chance of a complication of the treatmente that we are testing was %50, it's high to take the risk, but the guy insist to take but we couldn't made something like that.
