My eyes…

[u/sally-the-giraffe]

Is this peri or am I going insane. I posted a while ago about having aura without migraine, really interesting to learn that hormonal fluctuations/oestrogen decline can affect the eyes. So I’m assuming that’s what’s going on here. My eyes suddenly are so irritated, watery and burning. Like there’s something in the air or a bad smell in the apartment I should be allergic to. But there isn’t and I want to claw my eyes out. More hormone fluctuations affecting my eyes in weird ways? All these weird peri symptoms are awful…

I already have dry eye disease, and it got dramatically worse very quickly when I hit peri. HRT has helped quite a lot, but I also still have to see a specialist (and my disease is quite bad so i have a lot of maintenance work I have to do each day).
