Hi All,
I was diagnosed with MDS 9.5 years ago and had a successful SCT three months after diagnosis. I had some graft versus host disease after the transplant that the specialists were able to treat with immunosuppressants which I was weaned off of after about 2 years post transplant. The GVHD affected my eyes resulting in dry eye syndrome which I deal with using eye drops. The GVHD flares periodically and I purchased foam lined sunglasses to seal the eye cavity and maintain humidity levels and protect against wind. The sunglasses also were helpful in reducing light glare which can be very discomforting when the GVHD flares.
I have since broken that pair of glasses and cannot remember the company from which I purchased them. My question is - do any of the BMT patients that may be on this board with similar dry eye problems have any recommendations for sealed sunglasses?
Any comments or suggestions are most welcome!
