how do you?

Stop yourself from rubbing your eyes?

It's a childhood reflex. I just caught myself doing it after increased discomfort.

Any ideas?

wear woolly mittens

sorry - just trying to inject a bit of humour, not belittle your problem.

It is hard if it's a reflex action...I trained myself not to touch my eyes at all by putting yellow post-its all over - on my computer, on the mirrors, on cupboard doors in the kitchen...places wherever you see constantly that will remind you.

that, and just keep reminding yourself "I will not touch my eyes"

best of luck

I half expected a 'wear oven gloves' suggestion, but mittens works just as well.

I like the idea of post its. It's definitely a reminder thing.
