Morning Lorriem.....Same here. Sunglasses on always when I 'm out and even sometimes when I'm cleaning so dust doesn't fly in them:D Did wear the mascara the other night and same here. Rubbed very lightly. I only use Nivea eye makeup remover for years since it's the only one that doesn't burn my eyes. It's very gentle. BUT my eyes were kind of sore the whole next day. Do your eyes get tired easily?? I find by diner time, especially if I don't keep sunglasses on all day that the lights/glare seem to make my eyes heavy and tired.:confused: Going to ask the Dr. about this. I think Iam just scared of my own eyes now that they have something artificial in them . Want to make sure they're tight LOL I finished using the pred forte in my left eye last night so am down to just the Acular in my left and two of them in my right until next week. ALmost there. Then I see the surgeon on the 24th. I guess I'm home free if the eyes get a clean bill of health at that visit.

Your doctor had you taper off Pred Forte and continue with Acular? Mine was just the opposite. I am still using the Pred Forte once a day and I am a month post-op now.

hi Ashley...I was told to use the Acular in both eyes until the bottle was empty. The pred forte i started the day of surgery and had to use for 3 weeks. The Zymar i used for a week after each surgery. Doing a gradula for 4 xs a day to 3 xs a day to none. Can't wait. From what I was told at the surgi center where I had both eyes done , my Dr. isn't too bad with drops. Some of the Dr.s there have their patients use certain drops for 8-10 weeks and more often that 4 xs a day. I guess it depends on the Dr. and the patient 's needs.
