Thank you so much, Dr. Cremers. I am one of thousands of permanent victims of isotretinoin ("Accutane") and I most appreciated you making this video.

@spigney4623 Год назад

I appreciate this video so much. I am desperate to get rid of my acne, but the permanent affects of accutane send a chill through me. My eyes are already very bad (-8.5 in both eyes) and i have a bad feeling id lose my vision if i messed with my already delicate eyesight

Same here!! I have -8.5 in both eyes too and I was prescribed Accutane. Did you try it? I don't think I will after reading all the side effects

So would using eyes drops every day help with situations like this? I defientely dont want my eye site to go bad. That being said I'm an student/ white collar worker so starring at the screen for 10 hrs a day. Would Eye exercises, eye drops..etc help prevent peramenent damage?

I am suffering from ocular migraines (and have for years). The frequency is much more prevalent as of late and I am trying to research any potential links to Accutane as I took it for several months and have had many other side affects over the past several years. Any information or links to reputable resources or research would be appreciated. TY.

I have the exact same since taking Accutane. It’s a poison.

I’m on accutane right now and usually the main side affect is very dry lips but in my case I have an extremely dry face. Dryness and peeling all over my cheeks and forehead. Is this meant to happen cause I don’t hear anyone else mention dryness occurring all over their face.

You’re damaging your body and the glands in your eyes permanently 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️why would you do this …. There are safer methods!

it is supposed to dry your skin

@mikaprecious6875 Год назад

What about oily skin treatment there is only accitane

@alexleee3885 Год назад

indeed. for men with oily skin / seborrhea, accutane is the only option ( low dose accutane). For women birth control might have an effect on the oil gland however accutane remains the most effective

Is there anything that can be done while on the drug to prevent this from occurring ?

@alexleee3885 Год назад

there's a thing called artificial tears, which is basically eye drops

@francesgold6649 2 года назад

Dermatologists lie about the permanent effect of meibomian gland dysfunction to your eyes from accutane. I have spoken to 5 dermatologists who all claim that accutane dry eyes is temporary. I haven’t talked to a single dermatologist who is honest about this effect or provides patients with informed consent for this risk.

@francesgold6649 2 года назад

They lie about it so that you will agree to take the drug without knowing the risks, because they only care about getting patients and a paycheck… they don’t care about your health. Sadly, medicine has become so corrupt.

@@canigetmyflowback6380 look up accutane and MGD, the damage to your eye glands can be permanent and sometimes the damage isn’t apparent / doesnt onset until months or years after you quit the drug
