Hi. I had sinusitis last week which I treated with nasal spray and anti-inflammatory meds. I had blurred vision and pain down my nose, my cheeks, jaw, upper teeth and too of my head and forehead. Congestion now gone but still have eye pain and blurred vision. I find it most disconcerting. Any advice or thoughts welcome :-)

    Hi, i too get eye pain with sinusitis.  I have found that getting an eye covering that has some sort of material in the eye patches that when heated retains the heat for 10-15 minutes.  U can get them at the drug store.  They are made from soft material.  The heat feels wonderful AND they blackout the room.  These are not plastic but made from comfortable soft material with an elastic strap.  I use them at bedtime but can use them anytime you feel discomfort.

      Thank you so much for your reply. I will definitely get myself one of the eye pads.
