On January 7th, 2019 I had tear duct plugs put in the bottom interior tear ducts of my eye lids.
I'd seen an opthalmologist last summer who told me the bottom plugs help even more than the upper plugs to maintain moisture on the eyes.
So it took 6 months and I finally have these put in.
I did quite well for a long time with just upper plugs. However, it is probably mainly aging that I'm needing both upper and lower plugs now.
The opthalmologist did a special test where they see if you have medical issues with the lids but that was negative.
This time, I had to have the lower plugs inserted twice. The first ones fell out a couple weeks ago.
Hopefully this set will stay in.
I still highly recommend others consider this treatment, especially those that suffer from severe cases of dry eyes.
