Recently i have been suffering from incredibly sore eyes, especially when tired. I dont mean sore as in aching but sort of stingy, its really hard to open them and consequently i walk around with my eyes narrowed a lot. I fell on my head almost 3 months ago now, but this only started a month ago. Could it be related? just wondered if anyone else has experienced this?

Yes, I have issues with my eyes, stingy, tired...when I get worn down during the day they really bother me.
I have vestibular problems from my concussion (3 years ago) part of which my eyes jump up and down really fast, can't wear contacts anymore....eyes tire easily. |

Ah, maybe thats it then. the doctor says i dont have a viral conjunctivitis, but prescribed eye drops. ill see how that helps.. seems weird that it started so long after my concussion though.

If you have no other post concussive symptoms then it's unlikely to be anything to do with the concussion and more likely fatigue/stress/etc. Post concussion syndrome can certainly make your eyes tire quicker though. By 6 o clock my eyes feel like they want to go to sleep even if the rest of me doesn't. They are permanently dark and feel heavy a lot of the time.

Hi, my eyes feel like they are burning when they get tired, especially if I have been using the computer for a while. I try to avoid them getting sore (along with my head and everything else that aches) by keeping to my regular rest times.

I have also had very tired eyes when I first had my head injury, though as time has gone on it has improved unless I am very worn out. Quite annoying but workable. I try to space out the time I use the computer and watch tv when I am able to do so. Giving them a break really seems to help me.
