What is Prokera? Prokera is just one of many brands of amniotic membrane that is used for corneal healing purposes. It is unique in that it is cryopreserved tissue and because it is made into a contact lens. Amniotic membrane is the covering that surrounds a baby when it’s in its mothers womb.This is all done ethically; No babies or moms are hurt and the mothers consent to the use of the otherwise discarded amniotic membrane for eye healing purposes. Whether you have extreme dry eye from rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögrens or another autoimmune condition, or you have a non healing corneal ulcer or defect from a herpes infection or many surgeries, an amniotic membrane can help restore the cornea. Prokera can be placed in the office and it only takes a few seconds. You can use your regular eye drops and you come back a week later to have it removed. #prokera #cornealulcer #keratitis #sjogrenssyndrome #siccasyndrome #dryeyes #dryeyesyndrome #dryeyespecialist #dryeyetreatment
Eyes and Shine! Have you ever had to use eye ointment for dry eyes, a stye or for pink eye? Let me know I just posted a new video reviewing how to apply eye ointment with @ocusoftinc Retaine Night Time PM Ointment. ▶️ LINK IN BIO FOR FULL VIDEO▶️ Eye Ointment is very thick and can be tough to work with. It can even cause blurred vision when using. But formulations can be great for treating many eye conditions such as corneal abrasions, exposure keratitis, and a great antibiotic choice for kids. ⚡ Check out the video - keep and eye on it!
With the record breaking polar vortex approaching Chicago soon, this is one of the few times that I am grateful to be in California. Wind gusts will be up to 30 mph which will make the temperature feel as low as -50 degrees! Here is some quick information and tips on how to help your eyes handle this cold... (even though I would really just recommend staying indoors).❄️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1️⃣ Cold winds make eyes watery and can cause evaporation of the tear film - causing moisture loss and eyes will dry! Use artificial tears more frequently (preservative-free if you can) to give back moisture.
2️⃣ Stay hydrated!
3️⃣ Heated homes and buildings can actually make it a dryer environment. Use a humidifier to put back moisture in the air.
4️⃣ Take a break from your contacts as they are already a drying component.
5️⃣ Wear protective sunglasses to help with UV exposure and gusty winds drying out the eyes.

Have you failed other dry eye treatments? Are you looking for a drug-free approach to get more permanent results? Are you tired of using eyedrops throughout the day
.
Interestingly, according to the Mayo Clinic, 63 percent of IPL/MGX-responsive patients had previously failed to respond to LipiFlow thermal pulsation. Our in-office therapeutic results especially with Intense Pulse Light-MG Expression are wonderful. Patients are raving about improvement with their dry eye disease, MGD, & ocular Rosacea.

Sunday self-care anyone

My @bruder_official eye mask is one of the staples in my nightly routine. Especially for women who tend to wear a a lot of eye makeup, it’s important that you thoroughly remove any makeup debris before going to bed as this debris can lead to clogged oil glands and may contribute to try eye and possible infections.
.
The best way to prevent clogging of your glands is to always remove your makeup and wash your face with some sort of gentle cleanser. However, I’d recommend taking this a step further and adding a heated eye mask. The moist heat from the mask will help to melt any further clogged glands helping to restore the normal balance and flow of your meibomian glands. It’s been one of my favorite additions to my nightly routine because it helps me feel more ready and relaxed for bed.
.
You can use this technique really at any time of day, although morning or at night tends to be when most people find it to work best. While there are many different eye masks available, Bruder has been my favorite brand to use and I love the naturally antimicrobial components of the product and that it’s washable and reusable. It’s seriously been a game changer.

⭐️FLAX SEEDS ARE INSANE ⭐️ I talk a lot on the blog about there being no magic bullet in terms of special foods for health✨ That said, everywhere I turn this year, I am finding another great benefit of eating flax seeds.✨ I've used them for a long time for cholesterol reduction, as a wonderful egg replacer in baking, and a great source of healthy fat. ✨Turns out they are great for so much more. My ophthalmologist recommended them as part of a solution to help with dry eyes from too much screen time (guilty!!) I'm also relying on them now as part of a food-based solution to keep my hormones happy and in check. The more I look into them, these little golden seeds are amazing for a million other things in the body. ⭐️⭐️⭐️I'm thinking 1 Tbsp a day of freshly ground golden flax seeds seems to be a pretty easy life hack - yes Putting them in my porridge every day is dead easy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Anyone else love them? What for?
