Hard to Believe...

... something as innocent looking as this can be so puzzling to a trained specialist.



The eye doctor saw the adhesive whatchamacallit on the lens, so I'm NOT imagining it. But he has NO idea what it could be, it's not coming from my hands, and it resembles protein but "not exactly" which could be because both the eye doctor (at the appointment) and I (this morning in the mistaken belief I could "out damned spot" it) rubbed the shit out of the schmear to absolutely no effect.

So upshot, I get two free sample lenses, a free mini sample of "Blink and Clean" eye drops to start using 3x a day, and a free medium sample of a new cleaner to try every other day.

Basically he thinks I'm secreting an excess of protein in my tears that is potentially be-smearing my lenses. We'll see how the new regimen goes.
