HEY ILL TRY AND MAKE THIS SHORT AND TO THE POINT.

I went on accutane when I was 16, 40mg a day for like 6 months.

JUST THE USUAL SYMPTOMS DURING COURSE (Dry lips, dry skin... No dry eye though)

Okay so I finished the course and my eyes began to just be super dry...

lets say they were at 100% dryness for information purposes.

I went on an eye drop called Tobradex (4x a day for a week) which brough the dryness down to 50%. I really do think that one drop helped a lot...

OKAY so with time I feel as though my eyes are at 25%.
My symptoms now would be cloudy greyish eyes, red blood vessels covering 20% of total white part and the FEELING of dry eye is decent. Like its not that much of a bother anymore.

BUT GUYS IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLZ ASK. I DONT REALLY KNOW WHAT TO PUT I JUST WANT TO WARN EVERYONE IF YOURE FEELING DRY EYE LIKE MAYBE STOP ITS A SHITTY SIDE EFFECT AND ID GO BACK IF I COULD AND NOT TAKE THE DRUG...
