I have both chronic dry eyes and dry macular degeneration. My vision is very blurry with some days better than others. My retinal specialist says I have to be more proactive to improve my dry eye condition. Best wishes, Sharon Moore team member</p>

   <p><inline-mention username="GaryJBlais" user-id="4506177"/> so sorry you are experiencing blurriness - I know what a pain that can be! I had a corneal melt about a year and a half ago and my vision was so blurry that I couldn&#39;t drive. But I also get blurry eyes with excessive dryness. So, as Sharon said, it&#39;s a multifaceted issue. If you feel like your eye doctor is unable to find a solution to your problem, I would encourage you to seek out a second opinion, You deserve good treatment for your eyes. -Ava, <a href='http://chronicdryeye.net' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer ugc'>chronicdryeye.net</a> team</p>

   <p>I am so sorry to see you are dealing with these problems. In addition to my severe dry eye I also cannot swallow solid foods. Doctors have done all kinds of tests and haven&#39;t a clue what&#39;s wrong. I&#39;ve lost huge amount of weight and some days an so weak I can only sit in bed with my eyes closed because the stress is make the eyes worse. There are many days when I just do not want to go on. My life has changed so drastically that I can&#39;t even imagine it going back to where is was before. You have serious, painful problems and you sound as if you are dealing with them better than I am dealing with mine. Thank you for sharing your painful journey and God bless and pray He will give all of us relief. I am typing this with my eyes closed so hope there aren&#39;t too many errors.</p>

You mentioned having multiple tests without any answers. You are probably aware there are health facilities that specialize in diagnosing disease. I hope you find support here that helps you cope.

   <p>Its really heartbreaking to get these tests. Seems like the affects linger for days not hours as they say it should. Afer getting two cataract surgery I have bitter taste in my mouth for thee eye doctors. Why? cause they really do not understand what we go through daily. When I talk to my doctors they only really want information about the eye that he/she did surgery on not the other. But hello!! we need both eye together to ger the picture in focus. I am just exhausted, having to go to one doctor for dry eye, the other for glaucoma, the other for bluriitss (I now I mispelled that on) ust plain fed up1</p>

      <p><inline-mention username="Chitown lee" user-id="6608455"/> it can be so tiring and frustrating chasing doctors. It is upsetting when the doctor doesn’t see us as a person instead of a problem to be solved. I switched doctors and got one that listens and answers questions. It is a refreshing change from my old doctor. Warm wishes, Sharon Moore Patient Leader</p>
