Herpes Simplex
"Got herpes keratitis (cold sore in eye) twice. The Opthamologist I was seeing would just prescribe me the same medications for the genital herpes. Even though the meds helped clear it from my eye, it wouldn&#039;t completely get rid of it. I&#039;ll still feel a bit of pain in my eye. So I started using lysine. The 1st wk using it, my pain went away. But wasn&#039;t sure if it was the lysine since was using other otc vitamins also (for my dry eye). But stopped using it last wk and started feeling the pain again in my eye. Last night took 2/500mg of Lysine before sleeping and woke up with lesser pain. Was very surprised. Still experimenting with the dosage, so will be taking 2/500mg, 3x&#039;s a day for maybe 3 days and slowly drop the dosage to only 2x&#039;s a day"
