Hi All,
I've been swimming in a neighbors pool the last couple of weeks and after I
get out, my eyes seem a little funny. I use Bion Tears and they feel a
little better, but the next morning they still feel funny. I usually don't
use goggles. Should I? I've always worried about the suction when I take
the goggles off. Will the pool water or ocean water (going to the beach on
Monday) hurt my eyes -- other than the stinging? Should I get goggles?
IOP in trabed eye is still low, at 5. Trab was done 5 Feb 2003.
Thanks for your help!
David

I swim every day & had the same question about goggles. There has to be
some suction to make the seal, but according to Dr. Robert Ritch it is
nothing to worry about.
