dry eye: itching!
RCE: like squirting the juice from a lemon into the hundreds of papercuts on my eyeball
ETA: I don't actually have papercuts on my eyeball. I have apparently always had dry eyes, but developed RCE in April of 2006 after an injury to my eye. Kitty litter was involved, so I really did have 30-40 minor abrasions on my cornea.

Stinging
Stinging sensation, like being poked in the eye with something sharp.
(I tried just one word-stinging-and it said my reply was too short!)
Originally posted by Rebecca Petris View PostFor those of you who have significant corneal pain or other form of discomfort:
Can you please tell me in 1 word or very short phrase what your dominant pain sensation is?
If you have multiple symptoms, try to articulate the pain sensation that seems to be the most debilitating, that most interferes with your usual activities.
Examples (but please add different ones if none of these fits you!)
burning
foreign body sensation
scratchy
gritty
sore
pressure
photophobia
menthol sensation
