I have been on Topamax for the last year for migraines but during the same time period, started having problems with my eyes. I thought it was an infection from my contacts so I stopped wearing them plus my eye make up. I have been to 5 doctors and they all seem to think it's "Dry Eye Syndrome" and I have been having them insert plugs into my tear ducts and I am constantly putting lubricant drops in my eyes to relieve the burning and itching. It dawned on me this weekend that this All started the same time I was prescribed this medication. I have stopped the pills since Fri.
My question to all: Does Anybody have been having similar problems and will it go away or is the damage done?? Will the doctor.s admit to knowing anything?
