How Long Will It Take For My Eyes To Function Normally Afer Radiation Therapy In Orbital Region?
A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

My diagnosis is Follicular lymphoma grade3. Treatment undergone is 26 cycles of ERBT of both orbits. More than 10 weeks are over , my larcigel glands are not working. I still have pain in eyes though I use artificial tears regularly.

My Follicular lymphoma was found in a gland in my right eyelid…had a few days of quick radiation and that was in early 2020..thankfully it was caught early and so far it watchful waiting…I go every 6 months for blood work and then yearly scans
The gland was removed surgically and other than a little drooping eyelid all seems quiet

I am sorry to hear what you are going through and hope that going forward you will feel much better.
Stay strong
