Question for those of you with Ocular cea

[Guest guest]

I was diagnosed with cea 4 months ago. I believe that I may have ocular

rosaea. Have had the dry gritty feeling for about two years. But always

thought that was from allergies...that is, until I joined this group. How

come my derm never suggested I get this checked out? Anybody have a derm

that suggested they see an eye doctor?

What is the treatment? I heard that if it is bad (which mine most likely is

not), they prescribe eye drops with steroids in them. HMMMMMMMM...what the

heck?

What do you all do when you have the dry, gritty eye feeling? Are you all on

antibiotic eye drops? I also hear that keeping the eye lids and lashes clean

will help (duh)!

Any suggestions until I can get in to see an eye doctor?
