I am 3 days post cataract surgery. My eye has been very itchy and today it feels as if it'ss being held by a vice. It's a very strange feeling and depressing. I'm 45 and other than being extremely nearsighted and healthy. I have had dry eye in that eye for the past couple years and am wondering if what i'm experiencing is extreme dry eye or something else. Has anyone else experienced the feeling as if something was wrapped around your eye being associated with dryness? I don't know how else to explain it. Thanks in advance
