devloped this condition at about 70 years of age … I am now 80….I have accepted this malady but wish instead of Botox which I have in the way of injections every 3 to 4 months there were another form of treatment. The injections are a bit painful and oral medication was tried but didn’t really cut it for me…I felt a bit lathargic and doped up…My eye surgeon does the injecting and I feel there has to be a better way…I wish someone would come up with something less painful and even longer lasting…I am a trouper of sorts and know I must live with it but maybe some one can tell me why…as soon as I am injected …the eye is constantly dry and the gel although it helps doesn’t seem to be that long lasting for me. Mind you I do not wish to complain…others have more serious maladies than I but perhaps someone watching can come up with something I do not know as yet….let us keep our chins up.
