I wear my frameless glasses every day, and never did this happen. I also got these glasses from a friend who personally picked it out. She said it fit my style. :)Vincent Davishttp://image.ca/locations/canada/bc/surrey-place.aspxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-62372387509476840222011-01-23T16:17:26.611-08:002011-01-23T16:17:26.611-08:00Hi Julia.

My glands have not been that swollen yet, but when they're sore, I put a warm (or hot) damp cloth on the glands, as I do over my eyes in the morning and the evenings, to keep the eye juices flowing.<br />As far as glasses go, I was so traumatized 4 years ago when I got SS, that I had to wear glasses after 20 years of contacts. Over the last 4 years, after trying thin wire frame and frameless, trying to hide the fact that I had glasses, I finally realized that was futile, as I either looked look an old granny or just plain old fashioned. Either way, you can still tell that I HAVE GLASSES ON. So I decided to wear glasses that are stylish and stand out, as, if people know I'm wearing glasses, I might as well wear the glasses with style, even if they stand out (like your photo; think The Closer and her glasses). I feel much better wearing stylish (and obvious glasses) than wearing wire glasses that you THINK cannot be seen, but obviously can!stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01590844358772463697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-8100047798462746112011-01-23T09:08:58.528-08:002011-01-23T09:08:58.528-08:00My recommendation...

There are prescription eye drops such as steroid-based drops, and Restasis drops which may help also. <br /><br />Thanks for visiting, Dutchchatter! Yes, I'll watch closely to see if my parotids become infected and need antibiotics.

I'm lucky no problem with the parotids yet, and no eye plugs, so I count myself very lucky so far. <br /><br />Where I live, we have a cold and damp winter, and I am noticing this year that whenever I've been outdoors, I come in with dry puffy and red eyes. Any suggestions if I should be using something over my eyeglasses for the outside, or warm/cold water when I come indoors to soothe the eyes? Using my eye drops doesn't seem to help much.annienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-690850457652849477.post-24838187307789223802011-01-22T10:36:59.355-08:002011-01-22T10:36:59.355-08:00Choosing a new glasses is a big deal, after all yo...Choosing a new glasses is a big deal, after all you will wear them every day, all day long !
