Well, it's always something. My dry eyes were actually doing better. But, of course, I have to have OTHER problems now. Does it every end??
For those of you who have eye pain.....did your eye ever hurt to touch? Mine does in the 12:00-2:00 area. This has come and gone since Lasik. It was gone for several months and now is back again. The dryness has actually been better lately, so I am puzzled. I do also get a 'funny' feeling in my cheekbone area at times or around my eye socket...nothing major. It sort of sounds like that nerve....but I don't know why it is acting up now when my eyes are actually doing better in the dry eye department.
I have noticed it most when putting warm compresses on my eye or doing eye massages as my eye does not like to be touched, although I feel it at times when nothing is touching my eye. It is in my left eye, and this eye seemed to be slowly getting more painful. I stopped doing the massages for a while, thinking maybe I had pressed to hard and hurt my eye, but that didn't seem to matter.
This is very intermittent. Sometimes I can touch it and it hurts a lot, other times it doesn't.
I have also wondered if the eye lid is the culprit, and not the eye itself, but can't determine that. No unusual symptoms that would indicate any type of infection or anything. It really does feel like the pain is in the eye, but the only reason I suspected the eye lid is that when doing the eyelid scrub with the q-tip, when running the q-tip along the lid margin I hit a sensitive spot and it was quite sore. This sore spot was right near where my eye hurts to touch. This happened a couple of times...again, it is intermittent. No sign of redness or anything unusual, though.
Does this sound like anything you guys have experienced? Any ideas? I don't seem to have allergies or congestion.
