MINI went to eye specialist on Monday. Both ulcers are healed but she's still having issues with dry eye and the distichia. She will have surgery to freeze the inward-growing lashes(numerous lashes on both eyes)next Wednesday. Hopefully this will help her enough that she doesn't need to be on lifetime eye drops(tacrolimus).

Glad her ulcers have healed ! Hope she doesn't need the tacrolimus after the cryotherapy -I think the tacrolimus eye drops are quite expensive !!! Best wishes for next Wednesday!

This is what Jewel is on drop wise. Jewel too had an ulcer a while back. She is always having eye bogies. Hope Mini is doing better
