Has anyone noticed that their eyes burn and get drier after using the NeilMed sinus rinse? I am using distilled water but notice after I use it my eyes are so dry all day??? is this normal??

thanks if someone can help!!!

don't know what NeiMed is, but you can try Rhinohorn, this doesn't irritate my eyes, actually it helps me with sinus problems, which probably contribute to my eye problems

I have use this product, but not since developing my dry eyes, with my unique problem, having had DCR surgery to open and enlarge my punctums, I did notice that the solution would sometimes go into my eyes through the punctums, I'm sure that it would happen even without the surgery, and I would think that the solution being saline may be too strong of a saline for the eyes. Do you notice it in the eyes at all? It may not take much but obviously they are all interconnected.
