Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 Mike, can you really, imagine going to bed with a woman, in swimmers goggles? would need to wear flippers to round out the whole look. I feel freaky enough without enhancing it. not only would it look a bit odd, it would hurt to have that tightly wrapped around head all night. notthat tape of the nite chamber would look much different haha. oinment has worked so long for some reason not doing as well last few months. thx though. > How about swimmers goggles, you know those small ones that the Olympic > swimmers use. > Mikey > moisture chambers for dry eye > > > > does anyone have a source where to buy those moisture chambers to > > wear at night to help dry eye? lately have been waking up in middle > > of night in terrible pain, the ointment is gone after a few hours.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 Actually I do think some crew members do use the googles, but for me at least, my skull has been invaded (by the Docs) so much that I have some thin areas and I think the elastic would hurt. How about a humidifier in the bedroom?

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2003 Report Share Posted April 7, 2003 Cindy - and Jennette- I use the moisture chambers...as guided by Jennette's experience. While some don't like using the elastic band on the chambers, I do. And while they are hardly inexpensive, I found a way to cut the expense. The chambers have a soft foam lining which easily separates from the plastic "glass". It then becomes difficult to continue to use that particular chamber. What I do though is, take out the glue tube and glue the foam lining to the platic "glass". I have thereby used the same moisture chamber for probably more than a month. Barbara B.

I bought from ANA CANADA once but they were $4 each!! $124 a month is just a tad steep for that.Alternatively, if you tape your eye, what kind of tape do you use? every time i tried t hat it doesnt stay stuck worth a darn.thx!
