What do I do to get paid for my knowledge?20 May 2005 03:24 GMT20
Did someone write something on this forum about a way to make money by
posting info on a discussion. Is that true? Do you know anything about
that? I'd make a ton... thanks for any info in advance.
Newly advertised therapy for refraction errors...19 May 2005 14:45 GMT6
Sometime ago, I read a brochure at my wife's OD's office that some new
type of contact lenses which you wear while you are sleeping overnight
helps to re-shape your cornea (? - not sure if it said this) and during
day time you are free from wearing any type of lenses, but you ...
Presbyopia reversing on its own?19 May 2005 05:32 GMT11
When I was young, I had very good eyesight.
When I passed 40, I started to wear glasses to correct for farsightedness. As I
grew older, the prescription got stronger.
In the last two years (I'm 66), this process seems to be reversing. This has
Question: Best eye drops for lubrication?18 May 2005 22:24 GMT4
Hey, all.
A couple of weeks ago I posted a note concerning irritation I found one
night after having used day/night contacts for the first time. All was
well until the 4th night - I woke up and felt like sand had been poured

Computer glasses?17 May 2005 22:26 GMT35
Have just had my second cataract removed (first was a month ago.) Seem
to be working just fine, but I'm just ine the first week. I'm now
waiting about 3 months to get a new prescription. In the meantime the
doc says to get some "drug store" glasses for reading. I've had some
Blinking shadows in time with heartbeat16 May 2005 13:24 GMT8
I've got pretty bad nearsightedness, (around -9.75 in each eye).
I've had problems  for a few years now with massive numbers of
floaters, flashing lights, and sometimes when I sneeze or cough real
hard, I see what look like fireflies blinking on and off all over in
LASIK eye surgery, starburst15 May 2005 18:01 GMT82
I have already asked a bit similar type of question before, but since I was
forwarded back here from elsewhere..
As many of you know, in an eye that has been treated with LASIK surgery,
there is a center area (about 6mm) that has perfect refractive correction.
Two vitrectomies?15 May 2005 04:18 GMT2
On another group, a member posted a message claiming that he had had two
vitrectomies in the same eye. Once the vitreous is removed, it never
regenerates, does it? Then how is it possible to have two such procedures
in the same eye (for diabetes, in that case)?
Should you wear contact to an eye exam?14 May 2005 14:09 GMT2
My girlfriend just went to have hers eyes examined at a new optomitrist
(sp).
However, she was told that she was supposed to take her contacts out 24
ours before coming for the exam. Now she's been wearing contacts for a
Over-minus lenses for night vision problems?12 May 2005 22:46 GMT1
According to this abstract, minus lenses caused mild decrease in halos
by constricting the pupils. I'm asuming if it works for halos it might
work for starbursts.  So what are minus lenses?  Anyone had experience
with them?
Eyeglass Scratch Remover12 May 2005 21:44 GMT5
Liquid Lense makes scratches on your eyeglasses virtually undetectable.
The amazing fill and seal technology lets you glide over unsightly
scratches, and create a perfectly level seal. Once sealed, you'll never
be able to notice where the scratch used to be. And because of the
Irregular astigmatism vs HOAs12 May 2005 13:26 GMT11
I've read that irregular astigmatism created by LASIK can be treated
with INTACS.  But not HOAs.  What's the difference?  Especially if both
are the result of LASIK.  I always thought HOAs was a newer term for
irregular astigmatism but they were essentially the same.
left eye hurts little when closing eyelid12 May 2005 03:41 GMT2
Just started experiencing this yesterday at work.
Wasn't doing anything unusual - staring at computer
screen as usual, then experienced a little pain
in left eye when I close the eyelid.
