Hi, I was told last week at our 3 month eye check, that the surface of my daughter's eyes are very dry, and it may be due to blepharitis,(inflammation of the eyelids interfering with the tear production). I had not imagined inflammation affecting these, he said to use a lubricating eye drop if it continues to feel uncomfortable, which I will buy today as she is saying it feels like there is something in her eye now, and I can't see anything. Last week at Gosh for her JIA infusion the reg said he would ask their opthalmologist to see her when we go again in 4 weeks or 8 weeks. Does anyone else have any experience of this ?? Thanks, Anita
