I've (age 75) had 6 PK's -3 per eye.initially from lattice.The 'buttons last about 10 yrs; then edema, scarring, etc force a new PK.. I get red lids and sclera, and in 2010 started a chalasis. No rejections in 12+ yrs. I use 1 rgp and glasses. Chalasis is starting to shrink.
I'm currently 11 mos OD post op and 14 mos in OS. No vascularization. I envy other PK patients wh dont take any steroids. Wouldn't Alrex be a safe switch from my current Lotemax?
P.S. I'm mydriatic in OS (shingles) and may be the only person to hand paint an iris on my rgp for over 8 yrs with toxic -free Sharpie pen.No centering problems. Someone neeeds to tell the FDA to allow this since 1000's of people with no iris are sunlight-blind in that eye
