Guest guest Posted November 4, 2002 Report Share Posted November 4, 2002 , Peg's eye doctor thought that Peg was not closing her eyes all the way at night. By leaving them slightly open they were drying out. He recommended the use of regular scotch tape to help pull the eyelid shut all the way. We were never able to make that work for Peg but the doctor indicated that he had a number of patients for whom that was helpful.

But yes, it is very possible I also do not blink as frequently. I may look into this. Not much that can be done, with the possible exception of using artificial tears to help some. Regards, =jbf= B.
