Hiya, when you have a bout of fatigue do you find that you have painfully sore eyes. I am not sure if this is a medication related symptom or linked to fatigue. When I have spoken to my consultant about fatigue his reply is that my medication can't be working. It is as far as I'm concerned, I don't get nearly as many bad flare ups. Like to hear your thoughts on this. ta

    Artificial tears are what's usually prescribed, but most of the branded eye stuff have a 'dry eye' version and they're all OTC.

    The one I am using I've found to be better than the original one I got from the doctor.

    hypromellose drops are the natural tears ones that you can get over the counter, I find them very good when our eyes feel like they need taking out and washing. :roll:
