Oh boy does that bring back memories. And the worst thing, when I was just bald but looked okay lots of lovely people would talk to me encouragingly - when I looked like I was crying continuously - people avoided me like the plague?? The eyedrops quickly stopped working, didn't stay in long enough!! I carried a roll of toilet paper (unbleached, soft) around in my bag. And dabbed and gently blew and tossed. Washed my face often (water) and gently dabbed dry - reduced the swollen red look a bit - the salty tears was drying them more. Just before bed steamed my face like for a blocked nose and as long as I got to sleep quickly it was great. Kept a couple of clothes near the bed (those cheap microfiber ones) to put on the pillow when it got damp. Get another pillow to rotate to give them time to dry, and of course wash case and pillow often. And it did go away for me (took a few weeks) and was quickly forgotten. Wish you the best with the remainder of your treatment.
