How To Cure The Condition Of Phlebitis?

Have had several cranial injuries that could cause eye problems. I m 89 years old female. Ophthalmologist says I have phlebitis, but no more info. checkup two days ago say I don t need glasses, but eyes feel like a handful of sand behind the entire eye. Was told in 1965 I would eventually go blind, but with good nutrition over years, don t seem to have that problem, but it s still uncomfortable. Also, face gets very red, including both eyes, when I let my head fall back for any length of time, i.e., writing as I am now. Have been using ciproflaxcin drops (?) for several years but can t seem to conquer it. I am a naturopathic/homoeopathis physician, so understand what this is. Any suggestions?
