I recently was dx'd with Sjogrens and dry eyes. Had to stop wearing my contacts. My right eye seems much worse than my left. My right eye burns and often feels like something is in it. It is worse in the morning.
I'm using drops in both eyes. I use Theratears, but also sometimes Similasan from the health food store.
Recently, glare bothers me a lot.
Also, my eyes look squinty. Smaller.
I'm concerned.
Also, I'm getting a lot of sinus infections. Is this common with SS? Any way to help prevent them?
What might be happening to my eyes? Any advice would be appreciated. I have a good rheumie, but he doesn't seem to be all that helpful with SS.
Thanks.
