I am sorry to say RSD moved into both my eyes left eye first all inone week or over two weeks in the last three weeks, burning higher than usual light sensitiviey having to keep my eyes closed. Yes the sandman and draining tears, dry burning lots of burning. Im going through a bottle of visine a day just to keep them open. at first I thought it must be shingles but apparently you dont get thoose on both sides of your body horrible painful yes. I am so sorry to hear it has moved toyour eyes. I didnt even know it could until this month. Love ya,mbrfz(CZ)

Hi: I'm new on this board, but I also have RSD. When it moved to my eyes, I was told not to use off the shelf eye drops. My pain doc gave me a prescription for special eye drops that cleared the symptoms up pretty quick. Now, I only pull out the drops when I have a flare up.

I'm glad I found some people with RSD. I had been searching with no luck.

I hope you get some eye drops soon. You'll feel much better.

Can you please tell me the name of these drops!

Thanks so much

Deb

Deb: I'm sorry this took so long, but I cannot remember or find out the name of the drops. I no longer see that pm and they have been used up for a long time. Thank goodness, I haven't needed any myself so I haven't asked this doc yet. If I ever find the name I will post it or email you the name. I had a flare up or I would have answered you sooner.

Deb,
I also have RSD in my eyes. I found an over-the-counter eye drop that provides wonderful relief for me.

It's made by Baush & Lomb.
It's called Alaway -- Eye Itch Relief.
It used to be available for Rx only.
It's an antihistamine for the eye but it relieves the nerve endings, cools the eye burn, and lessens the watering.
