Restasis Side Effects Report #SELF-4223
Male patient reported the following Restasis side effect(s):Eye itch, eye pressure, stuffy feeling in nose, sinus headaches, dizziness (similar to motion sickness), slight nausea.
Used Restasis for 2 weeks for dry eyes. Besides the minor eye itch, burning sensation after using the drops (which only lasted a few minutes), I began to feel pressure in my eyes, slight dizziness (similar to motion sickness), slight nausea, occasional sinus headaches, stuffiness sensation in my nose. All this and I did not notice much improvement in my dry eyes. Doctor said it normally takes 2 months to 9 months to feel a difference but, if the symptoms don\'t go away, I don\'t think it is worth waiting for. I did not have any of these symptoms prior to using Restasis.
