I struggle with sleep for a variety of reasons, including my autoimmune disease, but sometimes I feel like the pressure in my eyes makes it difficult to sleep as well.
Pressure in my eyes was one of my most irritating feelings with dry eye. I remember going to my eye doctor often trying to explain this pressure feeling. As my dry eye has been better the pressure is less.

So glad I'm not the only one but also sorry you can relate to this uncomfortable feeling. What has helped decrease pressure for you?

I have had dry eyes for almost 40 years and it hasn't bothered my sleeping until recently. I now have issues with gritty feelings at night. I use eye ointments at night and sometimes I wake up at night feeling like my eyelids are glued together also. But when I sleep I sleep sound. I don't have any issues falling to sleep.
