Hi there

I hope some of you can help me with this one - recently I have started to have weird sort of numbness around my eyes and my eyes are really sore too, like my eyeballs hurt.  Also my body is sore all over coming and going as if I am taking the flu, but I am not.  I have been to the doctor AGAIN and the optician just to be told I have "dry eyes" but they are really really painful.

The weird numb feeling around my eyes that is coming and going is scaring me the most of all of this.  Anyone else having this?

I really hope someone does get back to me soon as it is really worrying.

Thanks again

xx

    It started when I was at school and my eyes were swollen and I thought it was pink eye but I started noticing dry spots around my eye and it really stung so i washed it out  and put coconut oil around my eye and that kind of helped for about 30 minutes  and I was looking at it and I guess I stretched it out or something and I got a cut in the corner of my eye the next day my eye was numb and no could barley open my eye I asked my doctor he said it was dry or just my allergies
