[Dailydrool] Corneal edema and 5% sodium chloride medication

[Drew McQuade]

Belvedere has had corneal edema for over two years now. With regular checks, 
he has not shown any pain, though his eyes have becoem increasingly cloudy. 
Still, he seems to have a fair amount of vision and lives very happily.

For those who need to save on the 5% sodium chloride medication (AKA Muro 
128), Bel's opthalmologist recommended that I get it from drugstore.com. 
It's a huge savings (and I appreciated his tellimg me about that, instead of 
trying to sell it to me himself at a higher price). He also told me to be 
sure to get the ointment form of it. It seems he and his staff tested it out 
on themselves and discovered that the drops sting more than the ointment. 
Now THAT'S dedication to science!
