Finally I had a dermatologist tell me I have ocular rosacea. She has me on 40 mg ORACEA (doxycycline). I use TheraTears also for dryness. I still have dryness which makes me use the tears and then my eye tears our water, so I constantly dab it and then occasionally get an infection. Should I be taking a stronger dose of Oracea. I take it once a day. It has helped but I am also wondering other than the warm compresses and qtip cleaning what else I can do ? Any ideas of a good physician also in the Los Angeles area would be helpful. Thank you. I have been through the ringer trying to figure out what is wrong with my eyes.
