Eyes Feel Funny in Menopause
Posted , 16 users are following.
Anyone have trouble with their eyes in menopause? Mine feel like there’s a lot of pressure behind them and when I turn my head to look across the room or look down or up I feel oozy. My depth perception is off a lot as well. I would appreciate any info from anyone on this and what you do to help it and does it ever settle down. Saw all kinds of docs and all say everything is okay. So frustrating.

Hi Nettie...
Yes, indeed it is quite frustrating! I've been checked out, too...ophthalmologist not optician. Said my eyes are healthy but I have seriously dry eyes. The dryness causes it's own set of problems...some you mentioned like an almost painlike feeling if I turn my head too quickly, depth perception off periodically,itchy, watery, dry. I have begun to wear contacts less, use drops more and rest with an eyemask that has beads in it and you can heat it or freeze it.
Another wonderful gift of menopause.
hugs!!

Hi Katy, I also have really dry eyes it's awful. Have you tried omega 3 ? I have and it's helping.

Hi Jackie...no, I haven't yet tried omega 3 but I certainly will now. Ice heard it's good for us in general so I will try it.
Thanks!
