Betadine
I don't mean to be pessimistic, but I will never have Betadine applied again. It was agonizing.
Nothing worked
No amount of rinsing gel, numbing drops, none of it worked. No pain medication prescribed, Against their policy. Really?!?
My right eye is stable
I'm 78 and have lost the central vision in my left eye and my retina specialist says that my right eye is stable but it could deteriorate at any time. I'll adapt.
Why they don't use the alternative chlorhexidine is beyond me. It is what it is.
Stay safe.
