I Have Problem With The Bridge Of My Nose And Off And On Irritation On The Upper Part Of My Left Eye

Posted on 1 day ago

Question: I have problem with the bridge of my nose and off and on irritation on the upper part of my left eye. I dont know if it is from my glasses that i got or its some sinus problem. I talked to my doctor and he said its the frame, i went to the optometery they told me it could be sinus related. I had to change my frames more than four times and result is still the name. What are you thoughts?

Brief Answer:
Unlikely

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but it is very unlikely that sinus problem causes irritation at the area of the nose bridge.. I second the opinion that this is probably due to your eye glasses.

I would recommend that you shift for contact lenses to avoid this problem.

I hope you find this helpful..

Thanks for your reply. Here is the thing i have been wearing glasses for more than 10 years and havent had this problem. I even got the exact frame from before even though it feels slightly heavier i did weigh it on a food scale and it was almost less than 1 gram difference. also i forgot to mention it leaves marks on my nose even though its barely touching it
