As someone who suffers from recurrent corneal erosion (scratches on cornea, that are painful as hell) I incorporated a set of steps to manage this condition.

1. Daily eyelid hygiene - using special wipes to get the leftover from your eyelashes, to unblock Meibomian glands. It can dramatically improve how your eye is moistened. People who suffer from dry eye syndrome should at least try it.

2. Using eye drops daily - whenever I see them or I need them.

3. (Something that is specific to recurrent corneal erosion). I put some ointment/gel when I go to bed. As most of recurrent corneal erosion events happen during the night, it is crucial to be protected when you sleep.
