Hi,
Seems another crazy symptom, for the last week or so my eyes have been itchy and dry. I suffer from hayfever and my eyes are mostly ok with the odd watery bits. But this is new.
It feels like the very corner of my eye near my nose is the worst part, it's worse on my left eye. It feels like that little bit in the corner feels swollen, but it doesn't look it. I feel like my eyes feel pressured but they aren't red or anyrhing sticky or gooey. I'm getting headachey from it as its making my eyes ache. I have noticed I don't have watery eyes recently.
I've read that this can be dry eyes yet another perimenopause symptom. When I've looked back at my symptom tracker it seems my eyes get worse mid cycle and before a period. I'd been on back to back birth control so don't know if that's caused the change.
Just wondering what everyone else here does or uses to help?
I already take fexofenadine. I've tried optrex itchy eye drops, I've tried otrivine drops, I'm using warm and cold compresses and washing eyes carefully, no make up. Hope someone can help, didn't want to go to the doctors as I've been shielding and still unsure of if they would allow me.
