dry eyes
by tagajmme, May 12, 2008 01:40PM
I have had difficulty with dry eyes. I take zoloft for Narcolepcy if that is spelled right. I have had the sleep disorder and all the symptems Depression ect. since I was a child but have just recently been informed of what the caused of my symptems are. The Narcolepcy is mild but nevertheless I have dry eye. Some times my eyes are so dry I have to wet them. What over the counter product works. Is it from the zoloft or could it be from something else. In the morning when I get up it takes me awhile to get going. as I do not take the stimulents. My eyes quiver sometimesWhen I try to focus like when you are so sleepy you can't hold your eyes open. I don't go right back to sleep but have to lay in bed a while till I can focus. My eyes are always blood shot which could be eyestrain. If you have any suggestions please answer. thanks agian
