Question

 

 

 

Hi,

In December 2019 I had an allergic reaction on right eye due to a dirty contact lens. I have used Lpred, olopatadine, FML drops time to time and currently using only refresh eye lubricant.

There's a big improvement but still u can see these white dots on my Lacrimal Caruncle and it's dry and itchy specially when I use the computer. Sometimes it burns too. There are no other symptoms only in this area. Can it be due to histamine release or a Lacrimal cyst?

Please help.

Answer

 

Thanks for your Question

Its normal to have these small white dots on this area. Keep using your eye drops to reduce the symptoms and you might want to think about refractive surgery instead of contact lens.
