So, just wondering if you have ever tried using flax oil as an eye drop? I am trying it in my dog as part of the cataract treatment, starting today, and she seems to like it.

  My problem never started until AFTER I had Lasik on my eyes.  Dry

is that the surgery itself caused somy type of "allergy" problem,
which, by the way, I strongly feel is not an "allergy" at all but a
sensitivity to "something" now lacking in my eyes secondary to the
surgery.

I recently read something that says cutting the flap in the cornea to
do the lasik surgery severs some small but critical nerves that are
responsible for some of the tear-response, leaving your eyes drier than
they should be and vulnerable to damage from irritants that would
otherwise prompt a cleansing reflex.

I've got dry-eye problems, too, from other causes. Not pleasant and
getting worse.
