Anyone have eye strain or pain?

Has anyone experienced eye strain or pain or feelings of your eyelids being heavy with their stress/anxiety?  

I have had every symptom in the book and have been to all the doctors and done all the tests since June 2007, but this is something new in the past several days.

Anyone?

yes, im not on any medication right now and i had this horrible feeling of my eye being pulled by muscles or veins (which sounds gross) i couldn't move my left eye to the right and left because of the pain, it was very achy, it went on for a week then faded away, but i still do feel it from time to time although its not that intense.

No, I am not taking medication.  They have wanted me to start antidepressants since June, but I have not wanted to do that.  I am seeing a naturopathy doctor and am trying to correct things the natural way.  Slow progress, but progress.

i just started paroxetine for anxiety, and i feel like my eyes are being stretched out. they're super dry too. everyone has been asking if i am high.  if you're taking a med this could be why.
