I can't believe it....

Maybe you should find a specialist. This has gone on wayyy too long!

If it doesn't clear up by the end of the week, I will go back and probably be referred to a specialist

I think that if you're still having problems then you should go to a specialist. This has gone on way too long.

I called the optometrist when they opened this morning and got in just after lunch. She agreed that my eyes haven't responded at all to the new antibiotics and it's a really stubborn infection so she called an opthamologist and by the time I got back to my office they called me and would like me to go to the hospital at 4:00 today, so another hour and a half. That was quick! They may do a culture or something to figure out what it really is and see what they can do to get rid of it for good. The optometrist thinks it's probably related to the infections I was having around Christmas, so it's recurring. Keep your fingers crossed for me and my poor eyes!

I'm so relieved that you are seeing another doctor. Eyesight is nothing to fool around with. Please keep us updated.

I saw the specialist, and he didn't know what it was, so he called in another specialist, and he didn't know what it was either. They took scrapings and I am going back in a week. Yes, SCRAPINGS of my eyeballs. So uncomfortable! They also put in dilating drops, which I've had before, but if I'd have known that I wouldn't have drove. I had to get Scott to come pick me up. The amount of time I had to sit there with dilated pupils and a bright light shining straight into my eye was almost unbearable, it made me start to feel faint and nauseous. But, hopefully they can figure something out.

I know it was uncomfortable, but I'm really glad you saw a specialist and that they took some samples so hopefully, they will determine the problem.

Let us know!
