I had my surgery August 10,2007. I haven't had any major issues... until now. I am having dry eye issues. Anyone else had this? Taking tons of vitamins.. 1,2,3 go!

dry eyes can happen as we begin to age. It is not necessarily because of rny.

I have had dry eyes since age 45,long before my RNY. My ophthalmologist says it's common as we age.

I have had dry eyes for several years. I know that dry eyes are related to age, not WLS.

My eye doctors recommend lubricating eye drops that can be bought OTC at the store and used as needed. If these drops no longer work for me, then my eye doctors most likely will write a prescription. Surgery will be a very last resort.
