I got Lasik done on 3rd May 2016 and I'm still experiencing the post-lasik dry eye. I have been prescribed by the doctor Systane Ultra" eye drops 4 times a day and I'm willing to go for a lesser expensive alternate - Ocumoist. Please suggest if it is okay to use this alternative - as I also worry about intoxicating my eyes with preservatives."

Dr. Richa Jain

U can use it. Systane ultra is preservative free. U can use refresh tears eyedrop which is also preservative free

She suffering from asthma, whenever weather changes, she suffers from continuous cough, what diet have to take to prevent from asthma whenever weather changes, in addition to medicines.

Dr. Gopal Samdani

Paediatrics

There's no asthma diet that will eliminate your symptoms.Avoid sulfites. Sulfites can trigger asthma symptoms in some people with moderate to severe asthma. Used as a preservative, sulfites can be found in wine, dried fruits, pickles, fresh and frozen shrimp, and some other foods.The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology reports the foods that cause the majority of allergic reactions include tree nuts, wheat, soy, peanuts, eggs, fish, shellfish and cow's milk. If you're allergic to any of those foods, definitely avoid eating them

Dr. Vishal Arora

Ophthalmology

Hi PATIENT Insect or any foreign body if goes into the eye, first thing is to remove the foreign body, clean cold wash. 2. Antibiotic cover Moxi is better than tobra but if you are not tolerating moxi put tobra 3. All antibiotics tend to burn and the burning sensation is due to the preservative benzene alkonium chloride. 4. Stick to the doctor who examines you throughly 5. I usually give hourly lubricant (refresh ezee or lubrex uno) one drop hourly just to wash out toxins. 6. If there is formation of epithelial defect Healing will take more time. This is completely based on what you have written and i have not examined you.
