DOES ANYONE EVER HAVE A BULGING EYE ON JUST ONE SIDE. I GET THAT EVERY SO OFTEN AND THEN IT GOES AWAY FOR MONTHS, BUT OF COURSE WITH MY HEALTH ANXIETY, IT FREAKS ME OUT. ITS NOT THAT NOTICEABLE BUT DEFINETLY CAN TELL. IT STARTS WITH AN EYE TWITCH AND THEN I LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND NOTICE IT. I TAKE PROGESTERONE CREAM WHICH I DON'T THINK IS HELPING MY PERI SYMPTONS. IT MAKES ME FEEL BLOATED, SWOLLEN, CRAVINGS.....LIKE IM PREGNANT. I WONDER IF THAT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SWELLING. ITS ALWAYS ON THE LEFT SIDE AND THATS SIDE I SLEEP ON EVERYNIGHT AND IT SEEMS TO GET BETTER AS THE DAY GOES ON. I ALSO HAVE BAD SINUSES WITH CYSTS IN MT LEFT MAXILLARY SINUS WHICH I FEEL MORE CONGESTED IN THE MORNING. I JUST GET TIRED OF HAVING SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME EVERY SINGLE DAY. I'VE TOLD MY EYE DR ABOUT THIS AT MY CHECK-UPS, BUT OF COURSE, AT MY CHECK UPS ITS NOT FLARED UP. NO PROBLEMS WITH VISION. ANOTHER WORRY I GUESS!!!!!!!!

Next time it flares up, go to the eye dr. immediately and show him. Bulging eyes can be from a number of different conditions.

i've noticed this, too. only no outward swelling, it only feels swollen. i've also had sinus stuff going on to where it feels like there is pressure behind the left eye, but docs don't see anything wrong. with all the recent talk about eye issues, i think i'm going to call my eye doctor and make an appointment as there is a slight visual difference in that eye, which comes and goes througout the day. hub says it's just that we're getting older!

Are you talking about a swollen eye lid? Or is the eyeball actually sticking out? If it is the eyeball I would go see a doctor for it. Kar is correct, it can be from many things, some of which require immediately treatment. Bulging eyeballs is not a normal thing. I am not trying to scare you, but it isn't something I would ignore if I were you. If it is swollen eyelids, then I wouldn't panic too much.

My eye bulges sometimes too. I've told my doctor about it and had all kinds of CT scans of my head and sinuses. They told me everything was normal. But still, the next time it happens, go to a doctor and let them see. Just to be sure.

THANKS. NOW ITS LATER IN THE EVENING AND ITS GONE. WEIRD:(

After I had one of my kids,the dr put me on the mini pill which is progesterone only-it made my eyes feel bulgy.I would stop the progest cream and see if it goes away.GOD-bless

Dear'shelby'

Although I have no experience of this I think it would be wise to have your eyes checked out.It could be something simple like clogged sinuses or some kind of swelling caused by your sleeping on the same side.You mentioned that you did tell your Eye Doctor but perhaps it would be best to hop off to him as soon as the bulging starts.The good thing is that your vision is o.k.

Stay Well

try putting cold cucumbers over the eyes and see if it helps.i would certainly go to the doctor,but the old beauty tiphas helped when i have sore eyes.hey,do you think meno can be a cause of eye problem,ladies?I have had cataract surgery,just had my prescription changed,20/20--but something is 'just not right'.

Have you been checked for Grave's Disease? It's a thyroid condition and affects the eyes. Consult your doctor and get some blood work done.

After that and if all is normal, its a process of elimination.
