I didn't think about the gun range either. Definitely going to need contacts now.

I couldn't be happier. Even though Luxotica owns all of these companies anyway. They also own the majority of big box eye glass stores like Lenscrafters. |
Daaamn....I really like both of those!

Below is a study that demonstrates this. Sometimes no treatment is the right treatment. You should also avoid steroid creams/inhalers and other steroid products which increase the risk for CSR worsening.

I appreciate your input here greatly! This is my third go around with CSR and now that I think about it, I do recall being ill the week before the two times prior and taking steroids. I just recently had a respiratory infection and was prescribed Prednisone. Oddly enough the same Dr. that I saw the last 2 times told me to not let anyone do anything regarding my CSR as it would go away on it's own, but this time he wanted to shoot a laser at it if it wasn't better in 3 months. The only reason I went in this time is to was to have my eyes checked and they kept making a big deal about the CSR. I knew that I needed glasses but I honestly think it was a way for them to bill my insurance 3 more times before writing my script for glasses. Now that I've done my own research on it, have my glasses on the way and script in hand; I won't be going back to this place. There was some elitist attitude issues from the ladies that worked in there as well.
