Sinusitus and Dry Eye Link?

[Aaron77]

My doctor just diagnosed me with sinusitis and gave me a course of meds to try and clear it up. Doc said that the sinusitis is probably responsible for some of the pain around my eyes and the ear nose and throat pain. Has anybody here had any experience with sinusitis? if so do you feel it has had an impact on your dry eye condition?

hello

Yes I have nasal polyps - had them removed 10 yrs ago and they are back - I use a nose spray - prescription - Sinus does effect eyes, mouth, headache, teeth

Definitely! My eyes hurt when I have inflamed sinuses. I just got over a sinus infection and during that time my eyes felt drier and sore. If my allergies are acting up it also affects my eyes. It's all connected.
