Ohhhh! I hope you can find relief somehow :/
every day is a struggle :( Some days better than others though, but I can always feel it.
What does it feel like? Like a migraine type sensation? Sorry to hear anyways. I like my eyes...so I can only imagine.😶
Ahh I can talk about it for days...
It sucks so bad... the eyes keep watering and they feel really hot and itchy, they are also dry too.
The main problem is the meibomian glands which sit on the eyelid are blocked so the important eye oil can't get out from them.
Therefore my tears evaporate very quickly thus leaving me with irritable dry eyes..
They feel like someone else's eyes very often.
That's a tricky line to explain.. They turn me into a miserable ass most days as I can't ignore the pain and frustration.
Some days are ok but most are bad.
Very rarely I get a pain free day.
Bleeeugh. It stops me from doing lots of things.
:-( Does climate effect you? Like colder or hotter has an effect through out the day on the eyes?
Yes absolutely. That's one of the main reasons I moved away from the UK.
The wind causes terrible tearing and the cold just sucks.
Warmer climate means that the oil in the glands is softer and has more of a chance to come out .
Some people are just dang lucky with their eyes, they just don't realise :D
Hotter climate is more fun, I think anyways.
Totally.
Walking around in undies all day and night is really a treat.
I love the warm wind.
Good for my eyes :D
