Guest guest Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Speaking of Sjogren's, if you have dry eyes I would see a doctor who can test you for that. It's a possibility.

I recall posting some articles with pictures where they found CSF in actually in mamy places they did not know of in animals anyway, thinking they also showed human head, areas around the eyes, face,ect. just think these blocked tear ducts are getting blocked from something within, not something getting in from backflow. it also seems it's happening more often sence the cataracts removel. do those tear duct stents also have a problem with biofilms? I'm guessing they probably would. I really dont want to go that route but I dont think theres any other route to go with this problem. I'm getting pretty worried about all the continueing problems with my eyes and around my eyes. I help this when it accures by myself by gently rubing and the fluid works it's way out. I learned this after going to the ER and haveing the doctor forse it to drain by pushing on it, he wasn't very gental. this fluid is very sticky, it's not like the actual fluid from tears at all. now I did have small vessel vaculitis on both my eye lids with exposure. would what leaked out of the vessels at that time possably be a form of colonization in the surounding tissues? and might now be working it's way out through the tear ducts? who would I possably go to conserning this if I could? if this a process of the optic neuritis?
