  • restasis and sense of smell

    I stopped using Restasis a couple days ago after several months. It seemed to be making my eye irritation worse, and my eyes had become very red.

    Within about 24 hours of stopping, I began noticing an unusual sensitivity to odors.

    Could an eye drop like Restasis have suppressed my sense of smell so that going off it would create a rebound sensitivity?

    I like having a good sense of smell, so it isn't bothersome (although I noticed some less than nice odors around my house that I wasn't aware of during the months I used Restasis).

    Hi Grace,

    This is an interesting topic. I've not stopped taking Restasis and really can't so I would not know the answer. The time in my life I most noticed my sense of smell was over the top, I was pregnant... Hmmmm. Anyway, hope things simmer down for you and I'm sorry Restasis is not working for you...
