For about 3 weeks now or longer my eyes have itched to no end, they water up a bit and I am beginning to wonder if it would be possible it is a side affect of the second Covid shot. I tired Pataday, drops for dry eyes. I do take two prescribed drops for Glaucoma. I have been taking those eye drops for over two years, this all started 3 maybe 4 weeks ago and it has gotten to the point I can hardly tolerate it. I also tried taking some Benadryl.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Tree pollen is peaking in some areas right now. One type used to bother the heck out if me. Now , not anymore. I guess my body adapted.

Possible cause ?

Try an over-the-counter antihistamine. I'm taking two per day now.

You might need a stronger dry eye drops. I think the last one I used was restasis it worked but it burned.

I've had a terrible time with pollen lately..My vehicles are covered in yellow and I have to wear a mask when mowing the lawn.

Evergreens are releasing clouds of pollen here now.

Have you considered going to a Doctor?

I have an eye checkup every 6 months, I sent my eye doctor an email last week and he made a couple recommendations which have failed so I sent him another email today and I am waiting for his reply.

My left eye frequently feel like I have sand or grit or possibly an eye lash in it. I also suffer from allergies, hay fever, etc and just thought that was part of it. My optometrist recommended the "Refresh" brand eye drops and that helps. I just flood each eye out good with the drops.

Did this occur right after your second shot? Who knows, it could be a side effect even though it does sound like allergies from pollen.

I was having the worst allergies of my life this year, totally outside of the Covid shots. Finally discovered 24 hour Allegra. One in the morning and I am good all day.
