    I finally got Dr. Acord to understand my delima of how I work and these eye drops. It usually takes me about a year to get a new doctor to understand and grasp the concept of MAILORDER, 90 day suppy WITH refills! Without refills added on the Rx the program is useless..

    I get off the boat, call in to make an appointment, that usually takes a week to get in. Mail order takes 2 to 3 weeks from me mailing it to recieve it. I may get it before I go back to work, I may not. Somewhere in the doctors instruction it has to be written not to give but 3 months worth of refills, and requiring the patient to come in for refills. Now I can call it in and have it delievered WHERE i need it if I am out on the boat or it can be here waiting for me when I get off.

    You have to meet requirements with the drug companies (low income) and then again, it is only a 30 day supply at a time. Samples from the doctors would fill the bill to the "T" but they just will not offer them to anyone WITH insurance. LOL! I had one eye doctor that would tell his nurse to give me 3 bottles of samples but guess what? They NEVER had any!

    But now that he UNDERSTANDS, maybe that will help? I hope so!
