Happy update: One year has passed as of yesterday since I had the ductal plugs inserted into my lower inner tear ducts below my eyes, and I must say I am still extremely satisfied and happy that I had them inserted. I am careful not to rub my eyes, as that could dislodge them.
I have experienced no pain or irritation from them.
I do not even feel they are there.
They are barely visible to the naked eye, and one must roll the eyelid down to view them.
The color blends in with the skin.
I am happy to say these ductal plugs have saved me money. I hardly ever have to buy moisturizing eye drops my doctor recommended.
My eyes hardly ever look red, are rarely irritated and I use eye drops maybe once or twice a week now!
And I was using them 4, 5, 6 or more times a day before I had the ductal plugs inserted.
The person who invented these is a genius.
He should receive honors and awards for this invention.
For anyone suffering from dry eyes, dry eye syndrome -- please consider getting these!
You won't regret it!
:)
