QUESTION: You posted a great dry eye protocol in the files. Do you have a favorite vitamin A oil you like to use?
ANSWER: As a topical I teach the patient to cleanly pierce a retinyl palmitate (in oil) gel cap and apply to the lids and palpebrum allowing it to enter the eye when they blink. Do that every PM at bedtime. Orally I use any retinyl product I trust.
