I've got a spare RGP lens that I would like to keep for emergencies and

dry.  Once I have thoroughly cleaned & soaked the lens in the normal
way, would it be ok to use a fan or a hair dryer to blow dry the ...

I suffer from hyperopia and astigmatism (OD +3.00 -4.00, OS +2.00

I find it quite fascinating that there is such a debate between licensed
practitioners and those not licensed. This is my observation so far:

I have a problem of recurrent corneal erosion that requires me to lubricate
my right eye before I go to bed.  The product that worked best for me was
Genteal Lubricant Eye Gel, made by Novartis, but it appears they no longer
make it, as I can't find it at local drug stores and it ...

From time to time I get a tiny dark spot in my vision. They are only
visible if a squint or look at a bright light. A spot will appear and
