A word from Dr. L: When I started Eyedolatry in 2011, I had just graduated from the Southern College of Optometry a few days prior. Like most new graduates, I wanted a place where I could read advice for my personal growth in the newest trends in patient care, contact lens fitting, and practice management. But in writing my posts, I realized that my true passion was bringing optometry to everyone. So if you ever wondered what that little growth on your eyelid was, or wanted someone to explain glaucoma in words you could understand, consider Eyedolatry your place for patient-friendly education. Use the image gallery to show your patients or students HIPAA-compliant examples of what unhealthy eyes or even common retinal findings look like. And please, I would love to hear more of what you want to learn about (be you doctor, student doctor, or at-home eye enthusiast!).

ReplyDeletehi, a contact lens skeptic here. have tried so many options, and found Bio-finity to be the best until I started seeing red lines snaking across my eyes....so i am switching to dailies total 1. first few days have been really good, so hope for the best!
ReplyDeleteThose red lines going across your conjunctiva (white of the eye) is a major sign of irritation, inflammation, and dryness! Switching to a highly moisturized lens like Dailies Total 1 will likely be a great solution for you :)
DeleteCan you please tell me the correct lenses i need to use as i am currently using Ciba Vision Softcolors Focus Monthly lenses which are now no longer available.Can you please tell me the correct replacement lenses i now to to get please.
ReplyDeleteThere is no exact replacement option -- if you want color contact lenses Ciba still makes Freshlook Colorblends and Air Optix colors, but no one is making enhancer tint lenses anymore.
