I have a friend with dry eyes who does a lot of computer work. She had collagen plugs put into the tear ducts in the inner corners of her eyes. Her eye doc did it. Like I say, this is a stretch.
canthus...see message for search tip...
Subject: canthus...see message for search tip...

if you use Google, you can use a 'wildcard' to search for a phrase; here's how: put QUOTES (") at the beginning and ending of the phrase and an asterisk (*) as the wildcard, e.g. "medial * skin lesion" would return matches to review and choose from, one of which includes "medial CANTHAL skin lesion"...hope that helps you be more productive! =)
