Sheila I guess I should've posted this question before my deductible re-set 3 weeks ago Good suggestions though. I dread doctors but I've reached a breaking point here. Guess I'll try to make some appointments tomorrow.

WindingRoad, that sounds like it's pretty much it. Even on short runs you can scrape salt off of my face - I think it adheres to my contacts and irritates everything in my eyes. It will eventually burn my cheeks, too. The Zaditor helps with the red but not the bumps and I always wake up with very crusty eyes. I've noticed that the compresses help but then I don't want to take them off! I do keep getting a prescription for some sort of drops that I've never used because no insurance seems to cover it...I wish someone would magically find some samples for me to try to see if $100/month is worth it
