Dry eye, nose and mouth

Hi Sara, re dry nose: I am 20 months post op and my right nostril finally gets a little moist. Doesn't run yet but it's getting there so I know exactly how you feel. I still use preservative free eye drops during the day and ointment at night. It's a very long journey. I'm thankful for this site. So much good helpful advice.  Joan

Sanderson:
How often do you see an ophthalmologist to see if you have dry spots on your cornea? Are eye drops during the day and ointment at night enough protection?

JLR:
The first 6 months after surgery my eye was patched as well at night. I saw my eye dr monthly. Now I see him every 2-3 months. The eye dr checks for dryness. Initially I had many dry spots on cornea but that thankfully cleared up. I suppose eye care will be a forever task. Oh, and I have deafness on right side too. I find that a makeup change kinda helps i.e lipstick and blush.  I no longer can wear eye makeup.
