Eye Area Smells
November 18, 2014, 12:32 PM- Q: Hi Dr, Rybka! Jia's eye area is really smelly. I am trying to keep it as clean as possible. Would you know the reason why? I was told to get Optixcare Eye Lubricant + Hyaluron (25 g) to aid in this but wanted to check with you first. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Cheers, Judy T.
- A: Optixcare Plus is a high quality artificial tear. Most of the time if you notice odor from the area of the eye it is coming from excessive bacterial growth. Many times the bacteria are aided by moisture. Can you give me a little more history and a description of what you see or even email a few pictures to [email protected]
