So so on healthy eating this weekend. Played the wii for an hour or so with my son Saturday (half of which was Just Dance), so got a workout in :)

For a few years I've been dealing with serious dry eyes, redness, and pain. I had gone to the doctor and was told I had dry eye and take Systane drops. They helped a little, but the problems persisted, so a few months ago I went to another doctor. She said I don't have dry eyes, but inflammation of the middle part of my eye and gave me steroid drops. These have helped a lot, but I still had a few days where my eyes were horribly dry. A week ago a friend at work said she and her daughter have been using Head and Shoulders shampoo as a face wash and was talking about how great her daughters skin looks and her redness and bumps were going away after just a few days of using it. So I thought I'd give it a try, been using it since Wed and while I don't notice a huge difference in my skin yet, I notice a difference in my eyes. I realized this morning that I haven't had to use the extra Systane drops in the morning since Friday and this morning my eyes feel fantastic, they are moist and pain free!! I feel like there is a connection. I replaced Proactiv face wash in the morning with the Head and Shoulders. I am going to keep an eye on this. I go back to the eye doctor for a check up Friday and am hoping I get the all clear to stop the steroid drops too! I'm wondering if I am allergic to an ingredient in the Proactiv? I've had the eye problem for almost 3 years. . . I started using Proactiv 4 years ago. Hmm, I sense a connection!

Try using Johnson's Baby shampoo as an eye wash!

Interesting. I'd say you're on to something with the Proactiv. Good luck at the doc Friday!

Good to know that H&S works as a good face cleaner. There probably is some kind of connection. I hope this works out for you. Good luck!
