Again…great stuff. I have my two-week follows up for new lens next week and one of the things I wanted to ask my doc was about drops for dryness during the day WITH lens in. I noticed Blink *specifically* says “for contacts”. Thanks for turning me on to this product.
Can you provide a step-by-step process for what you do right after you take your scleral lenses out of your eyes? I just got mine and want to ensure that I care for them. Thank you so much!
As usual, great tips. I follow almost your whole routine. With using the pink vials, I add a drop of Ivizia or Refresh Celluvisc preservative-free drops to the solution for extra comfort. I also use Clear Care with HydraGlide every four days. I made the fatal mistake of accidentally getting some of it in my eye & it caused a corneal burn. It was not fun. Please make sure you let the contacts soak for the entire six hours
Thank you this video! I got given some solutions and drops with my lenses in and showed the door and this vid has helped me to understand what each thing is for. I got home and didn’t know where to start.
The question I have and hopefully someone can answer been always wondering this but after using a cleaning solution and leaving them over night do I rinse them after with saline solution or do I just put saline on the scleral and insert it.
Hey, brother! Great video. How is your night vision while wearing these? I have just started wearing these and my vision around lights are blurr even with the lenses on. I think they call it astigmatism. LOL. Keep up the good work! Thanks
My doctor told me in order to use clearcare I have to get a PROSE CASE because the case that comes with Clearcare is too small for scleral lens but I keep seeing everyone who the case it came with. I’m spending so much because of Keratoconus and these lenses I really don’t want to shell out for a pricey and bigger case/basket 😭😭😭
Yes mine does get foggy after few hours, so before inserting saline I add 2 drops of celluvisc, or systane hydration drops, after that saline,it will help in reducing it for 8- 9 hours
Hello bro, I am from India I need your help I am moving canada next month can u tell me best solution and saline for my scleral lenses (Pureline is best ?)
I honestly forgot. I'm seeing the dr next week to see what changes occurred. I have thought about PRK, doing research still but want more time to pass to see how people react to it.
Thanks for the video but I’m confused. The first product is disposable saline solution and the next product is saline solution ? Why can I not insert my contact with the second product if they’re both saline solution?
The first one is preservative free. You don't want the chemical preservatives trapped under the lens right next to your cornea all day, so the smaller preservative free ones exist. They won't last once they are opened because they have no preservatives, which is why they come in the small little vials.
Oops, last question😅 Doctor also told me to use purilens, which is preservative free, for inserting my contacts Is this basically just boujee version of the little NaCl vials you got? I have some of those .9% NaCl vials and they work beautifully! So i don’t get why my doctor doesn’t offer his patients the cheaper route…
I’m not too knowledgeable about the types of saline solutions but I would suggest using the one I use since my eye dr recommended it. I also do know preservative free ones most people are comfortable with it. I haven’t had any issues even when I was using tap water (before knowing not to do it).
Why did i see a video of a doctor saying not to use hydraglyde clean & clear since it leaves a coat on the lens and also not to use if i have hydra peg lenses. I have no idea if my lenses are hydra peg smh. Idk why the doctor didnt go over this with me.
Tbh many Dr's go off what they think. Luckily for me I have 2 Dr.'s that actually care and study hard to learn what to do and not to do. I run every information by them and this has been my method. I haven't had a single problem in 5+ years. I think by now I can trust them.
Hey, for red eyes I will opt for the blink solutions with the contacts on. With the contacts off I have an idea of a good one but I don't want to recommend it yet without asking my Dr since I don't get red eyes often. In terms of when to use I answered that in the video. For cloudy I prefer the blink Cleans and Conditions (the white one not the green).
I seen you had Holcomb C-3R done with dr Brian .did you kc get stable ?im looking into going to him if I keep progressing.I’m using scleral lenses right now but I want to get stable
Nice where did you see I did Holcomb with Brain? And yes my eyes have been stable for years now. I'm more than glad I did the surgery. I just wish I did it much earlier.
And for those of us with sensitive eyes, instead of the 0.9%saline, you can try the Pro-saline from a company called Silver line. Personally, the 0.9%saline burns my eyes
The B+L is used more for cleaning and it’s not saline. The cleaning solutions are thick whereas the saline is more thin with sodium (like your own tears)
I can't use allergey drops because of the antihistamine so I dont know what works best but I know theres a drop called alaway they have a preservative free drop now I think the only one out there right now . just letting you know since preservatives in any drop over time can cause cell death in the eye
Also my doctor recommended me me to use the clean and clear and only the clean and clear, which sounded a bit odd after watching others describe it as a “deep clean” Do you know if there’s any downfall about doing this every day?
Did more research: clean and clear PLUS has the hydroglyde bullshit For some people, such as me, it leaves little spot residues on it the lens and it might cause irritation For a long time, i thought this was me just having hella white blood cells or being hella dirty 😐 If this happens to anyone else, get the clean and clear WITHOUT THE HYDRAGLYDE
My doctor told me to A, not use bosch lomb because sclaerals aren’t Gas permeable B) to use the clean and clear hydrogen peroxide every night to clean With that said, i was asking if cleaning with hydrogen peroxide every day is bad
@@wigglemyjimmy3087 maybe Dr’s have a different way of doing things but the whole Kaiser vision essentials used the solution to clean. I’ve been on these since 2014 and no issues. As for B I switch it with the hydrogen and solution.
@@JacobGagoOfficial i mean on the beginning when you got them for the first time when you put them in you had to adjust the first few weeks because you feeled the edges ?
dr. I'm from kerala india😭... I'm a keratoconus patient 🥺🥺🥺.... please help me😭😭😭😭😭......after c3r surgery i feel progressing vision blurring what can i do😭😭😭😭😭😭sirrrrrr please help 😭.....'d Can a person with keratoconus lose their eyesight again after doing C3R?
There is a possibility, but the chances are very small. Make sure to talk to you eye dr and have them compare the results before and after the c3r if there is progression. Hope this helps.
Sir I went to the doctor two days ago for checkup. C3R was done in both eyes. It's been six months since right eye and three months since left eye....... .... When I went there and got my eyes checked, they said that the vision is fine, but I feel that there is a lot of difference between the vision in the left eye and the vision in the right eye. ... My corrent vision is Right eye bcva 6/15 Left eye 6/6 ..... The vision of the right eye worsened. But there is concern that the left eye will be like the right eye. Because I'm a 21 year old boy...... .... I am worried that I will lose all my future. Very sad🥺 THANK YOU 🙏
