Consider the role of corneal nerves in dry eye disease
Very useful video
I ended up switching to to peroxide solution because a friend of mine uses it and strongly recommended it. I do wish my eye doctor had recommended it from the beginning. Less irritating to the eyes and they feel cleaner. Instead of that initial itching sting of multipurpose solution, you just get a cool wet sensation as the peroxide decays into saline solution overnight.
My Dr is just sending Rx in for me
I use colloidal silver for my blepharitis but it keeps coming back but it helps considerably
Is it normal to have a temporary version of this after having and getting rid of bedbugs? Almost a month ago, I woke up in the morning and saw actual bedbugs crawling on my bed and even had one on me... i already have an anxiety disorder and this sent me through the roof. Exterminator checked and found them and fumigated. Now they were killed and i don't see any, however I've been experiencing this phantom crawling intching. I know that it's not real - when I'm out of my house, I wouldn't feel it at all. it would literally start the moment I walked through my front door so I understand that the sensation has to be psychosomatic. That being said, it's happebing less and less, but it's still happening. Usually when I wake up in the morning I feel it but I jump up and look around and there's nothing, so I'm pretty sure I'm dealing with this, so can this be a temporary thing and how do I deal with it I've never dealt with anything like this before but then again I've never had bed bugs. Initially finding them though really put me into a state of panic and shock for a little bit. I'm guessing that's what's causing this condition at the moment. Is there any way to speed this up?
I am a glaucoma patient with a trabeculectomy in one eye. Are there any special precautions in my case. I would like to treat it, but apprehensive with the trabeculectomy. Thanks!
Mr. Benjamin, if the eyes are below the heart during Yoga exercise that exercise can cause the glaucoma pressure to go up. But what deep breathing during an exercise that is you should not hold your breath too long say 1 minute and breathe out. Your comment plse.
That big belly is a sign of insulin resistance
1:08 You see on signs in homeless shelters, if you have this.... Drug addicts absolutely do face the very reality of it in the most poor areas in the US and there is absolutely a dangerous fungus spreading through the US as I write this and it IS a problem in nursing homes and YOU make the big dogs of society more comfortable and find ways to sweep the matter under the rug and you destroy people doing this! Skin was a protector until someones immune system got in trouble!
A lot of you automatically look up to them and believe their fancy language 😅
Any homeless shelter and old folks' nursing homes are affected by your lies! Also, drug infested areas have a very real problem, in quite the opposition of your " profession"! People CAN be delusional AND hit with a parasite condition, may be more likely to happen because they don't take care of themselves! After that, of course, physicians and some people who run these homeless business find a way to sweep it under the rug and send people away while they have to grow worse off and they aren't doing anything to make it worse, physicians find ways to practice negligence while the society is condemning!
Diatomaceous earth, I put it in my face before I go to sleep , ivermectin works but ideally just give up sugar easier said then done , turpentine on a q tip works wonders too
if you get peroxide in your eye, you will not believe how bad it burns!
Important info: I started taking nicotinamide 500mg in February 22. In spring 23 I maybe noticed I was struggling to empty bladder at night, but didn’t think much of it. In august 23 I upped the dosage to 3000mg a day. After two weeks- I went into urine retention and had to have a catheter fitted for 2 weeks. Scans/bloods/samples all came back fine. In October I started retaking nicotinamide 3000mg a day, but was more cautious on the times taken. After two weeks I started to have extreme difficulty passing urine- this lasted for around 6-8 weeks. Both times I had a sweet metallic taste in my mouth. In February this year I started retaking niacin 250mg tablets, 1000mg a day, after just 4 days, on a lower dosage, I started to have difficulty passing urine, along with metallic taste. Again this lasted for 2 Weeks. Incredibly frustrating! I can only describe it as a feeling of wanting to go for a pee, but nothing comes out. And I could only go mostly by straining sitting down.
Sorry to hear. But did you had improvment with glaucoma? As this the reason you took it at first place.
Are you sure the mites can't live in your hair or on your scalp? I thought one study I looked at had an infestation identified on scalp biopsy? Also, was just given XDemvy drops. What are your thoughts on those? Thanks!
XDemvy? Is that the one that costs $2,000 for 10 ml?
@@elizabethblane201 mine was $30 through CVS but caused my hair and eyelashes to shed so be careful!
This shit burned my eyes soooo bad….stinging and redness for hours
you have to let them sit in the solution 6 hrs….then rinse
I will be getting contacts; I don't want the Multi Purpose Cleaner. I worled as a jeweler. We used Boric Acid to clean jewelry, to remove carbon build up from solder jewelry, used it to melt metal, used it to solder metal as flux. It is extremely skin irritating. And it also is used as an insecticide. I don't want that near, or come in touch with my eyes. I will be using the 3% hydrogen peroxide cleaner; I don't know if the catalytic metal inside the cleaning container that comes with the set has real platinum, or its just a a marketing term. But if it is real platinum; disregard the instructions to just use it for 1 month, and just switch to generic 3% hydrogen peroxide. Platinum is corrosion resistant, it has an extremely high melting point, it is virtually indestructible; so the manufacturer telling you to buy more containers with the same thing is pure BS. Hydrogen peroxide does not wear out platinum it causes a chemical reaction that separates an oxygen atom from H2O2 to leave behind H2O; the metal remains intact, and inert. Also, don't let them fear monger you about the container "getting bacteria"; nothing survives hydrogen peroxide, and when it breaks down into oxygen... Oxygen also destroys bacteria.

I had it for a while idk what really brought it on I think it was due to stress or I started taking high amounts of Kava! Not to sure! But it was horrible it litterly felt like bugs were all over me my hair especially and my doctor said Vistaril hydroxine but honestly it went went away! Also adavin 1-2mg for a day worked very well.
Ok how do you treat the eyes for demodex mites, then how do you get rid of them if they are also on the scalp also? Won't it spread back into the eyes if they are in the scalp?
I have it and it’s an awful feeling!!
If this hell gets past your skin somehow you are in grave danger and you will lose a lot of weight mysteriously!
Perhaps, you can give her a sugarless fruit smoothy with raw garlic in it and she will feel better. Do this every day. It looks to me like the she's of the world are made to look delusional! . Lots of healthful broth with oregano in it is good, too.
What happens to a common animal can happen to us!
Why don't you tell people that the same thing that happens to the common animal can happen to them?? Check it out!!!
Why won't you let me correct a word and make it the big badass, "SKIN" !?
When they finally agree with you they treat you like crap and say something ignorant about your character and don't understand that some conditions naturally get worse.
You Tube sends me dishonest messages as to why I can't post!!!
You need to get in these chat groups and find out what's really going on, YOU TUBE IS BEING DISHONEST LITTLE SCHOOL GIRLS AND NOT LETTING ME POST HELPFUL THINGS
CINNAMON WORKS GOOD TOO
You Tube is being dishonest. There was no good reason to not let me posts that! You don't want them to be able to show what comes out of the SKIN
SKIN, not " skirt"! They are afraid of me exposing these crooks
Other substances you can rub on to test it too
Believe it, what happens to the common animal happens to us! Look things up!
No, you will throw the tests because you don't want anything to do with it, most of you are like children in junior high, and the extent of the harm on or in the body can take more work to treat! Please, Parasitosia is a very cruel word! 3:14 3:14 3:14 Patients in nursing homes with lowered immune systems die from this kind of thing! Why are u shutting me down, RUclips?
I SPEAK TRUTH!
Get population back to normal??
Do you actually believe these pictures are of delusions??
Yes, it does exist, especially among needle using drug addicts or in unsanitary places. In fact, there is Morgellons and that's when your skin can't protect your body as well because of an immune diffiency, and bacteria and parasites will spread throughout your body! It can kill you and THEY don't want to deal with it!!! Also, don't have a relationship with a needle user or drug addict!
What a dirty hoax! I'll bet you don't honestly check things out and microbiology is way beyond your comprehension, OR you are just a cold blooded liar! 1:38
I am surprised by this discussion of Demodex as though it is a single thing ~ It is a genus, and not all the species are the same, AT ALL!!! Some are completely normal within a population range, just like certain species of bacteria! And, like bacteria, people can have issues where they are immune compromised or have some imbalance, resulting in an overproliferation of the normal mites, which causes issues. But there are other species of demodex that are a whole other story. I'm dealing with one that I think (based on info from a forum that I stumbled across) is called Demodex Injai, and they are larger than microscopic, most common to dogs, and more savage in every way. You should be specific about what you are talking about; it would be more professional and useful.
I already bought a microscope. I'm not messing around. Once I see them I'm getting rid of them.
We can't see scabies but no one puts up with them. Hello I'm not putting up with this either
I think this is such bullshit. How could doctors know this and not yell us. How could doctors keep this from us. Oh because most of us can't see them or feel them makes them living on us ok. Something we just have to live with. Give me a freaking break. If these things were just a little bit bigger were we could see them walking around no one would put up with this. This is unacceptable. This is completely unacceptable. I want something that removes all of them and the ones living on my body. I want them all off of me. And I will not let anyone touch me until I know they have treated themselves too. I'm not doing this. I'm not living with these sick gross things eating and living on my body and eyes. I want them all off. By the way tea tree oil kills human cells. You need a new solution. First scientist to discover a good treatment to keep them off will be rich
I want anyone considering using this medication to know that it truly changed my life. It's a miracle! I was literally in misery with dry eye, light sensitivity and night blindness, at the eye doctor a minimum of once a week with ulcers. She prescribed Oxervate, which thankfully my insurance covered 100%. After the 8 week treatment I didn't really see much improvement, but then as if overnight about 2 weeks after completing the protocol my eyes were white and clear for the first time in almost 2 years, I wasn't using drops continuously all day just to survive and i could go outside during the day without my eyes swelling shut. Now about 9 months later I can even drive at night. I just had an eye exam and my doctor cannot believe the improvement, my optic nerve has good blood flow and is healthy again. I'm getting emotional writing this, it really does work.
With respect, the western world generally dismisses parasites due to our culture and health standards, but anyone who has grown up in a third world nation knows parasites are very real, and many take anti-parasite medications every year. Most MD’s, PA’s, and NP’s are simply trained not to consider parasites as being a realistic possibility, and this is a flaw in the educational system. If you’ve travelled to -or lived in- a third world nation, and have strange symptoms I possibly indicative of parasitism, you’re not paranoid to suggest this as a possibility to MD’s or PA’s, most of which have never been in 3rd word nations. At the very least, it can rule out parasites, but for a provider to consider a person delusional for suggesting a possible cause of medical problems is cruel and should be a form of malpractice.
No, it can still happen in poor or in areas where there is drug abuse through needles and if you chose the wrong life partner or you are older and crowed into homeless shelters or are in poorly ran nursing homes!
They label women as trash and they show a belief in people not being worth their trouble and it is spread here mainly through drug abuse and partners with drug addicts
Physicians work with Psychiatrists to cheat people out of life saving health care and they are guilty of insurance fraud!
Thank you! Please read my replies! This thing happens here in the USA too, especially among the drug addict crowd!
WE DON'T HAVE TO TRAVEL!
Excellent info! Very Well explained by Dr. S. Schachter.
I wish the public would wisen up and quit worshiping these doctors who do whatever they want and simply get undesirable and volnerable people, mainly the elderly women, out of the way! These elderly people get ate up in the nursing homes and there have been obvious cases of it! This DOES happen to people in the United States, and PLEASE stop letting them hurt your mother or parents!
