    My Eyes Are Hurting But I'm Not on Chemo
    I keep learning and learning and learning on this site. My eyes are hurting - oompare it to eye strain, especially when I am on the computer. The letters on the screen become very faint, especially as the day becomes night.

    I have not taken chemo but have finished 31 days of radiation.

    I guess it's time to see the ophthalmologist. I'll make the appointment. I had been holding off due to the issues with the recurrence.

    Lots of Hugs and Lots of Kisses,

    Eye watering
    I went and got pluncal plugs put in at my ophthalmologist (it took about a week to notice a difference) and I also took along Bion Tears (can by at Wal-Mart) and actually put the drops in about every 15 to 20 minutes during any of my infusions(Taxol/herceptin, and herceptin alone) and it helped tremendously most of the time. Hope this helps.

    WATERING EYES TOO!!!
    Hi

    I also have watering eyes. I took 6 treatments of chemo every 3 weeks and by the 3rd or 4th
    treatment they started and still have not stopped. My onocologist said it was from chemo
    and I went to eye doctor and he said it was dry eyes. I have never had dry eyes. When the
    wind it my eyes or it's cold the tears flow. I get asked all the time why are you crying
    and I say I'm not. I stop wearing eye make up due to it running down my face.
    You know what more could you ask for no hair, no boobs, watering eyes!
    I have a very rare breast cancer. Chemo and radiation has no effect. But I think the chemo
    did help because I'M CANCER FREE RIGHT NOW. I had my pet scan last week.
    This cancer won the 1st battle and I won the 2nd but the war is not over for I will not
    give up.

    God Bless you
