WTF is keratokonis?

You want to be very careful putting any sorts of salves around your eyes.

That said, is your skin dry, hands and feet, elbows etc. Do you use any sort of moisturizer? You should. Is this an annual event, ever year when it gets cold? Does it crack at the corner of your eye or mouth? How is your diet, getting enough Vit A,C and E, zinc, etc?

My brother had annual problems like this that responded to flax seed oil, can't recall if it was as dietary supplement or applied topically, think it was capsules by mouth though. I know he used cortisone cream for it, but as I say,
