Interferon side,,,eyes

[honey1616]

I have noticed since week 35 that my eyes aren't as clear.  Always used reading glasses only before tx but now seems like I'm looking through a haze and everything is kinda blurry and its getting harder to see things clearly.  Has anyone else experienced this and did it get better after you stopped your tx?

try to order some Ureacin from your pharmacy Or U-lactin.  Urea is the best emollient/moisturizer there is. It stops scaling and itching.

I had the dry eyes really bad, especially at night. Sometimes I could barely get my eyes open in the morning.
  I found some moisturizing goo I used right before I went to sleep, that helped some. Talk about blurry vision, though. You didn't want to use too much or you'd still be all blurry the next morning! I also used the preservative free moisturizing drops several times a day.  
  Humidifier is good, too, especially in the winter. It's the only thing I've found that keeps my fingers from cracking open. That and vaseline right after a shower.

I never tried baby oil, once I saw the Vaseline worked I stuck with it. You don't want to wipe the floor with the same towel you dried off with, though.

Did you try baby oil after your shower? It's a little easier to apply than vaseline.  Hope you are doing well!! Joni
