What Causes Dryness And Tightness On Eyes?

Since I looked at a pen laser that was close to me, my eyes have been feeling tight and dry. After it happenned, I had to put a cold facecloth on my eyes for a few days. I went to see an optometrist during the week it happemed. She gave me eye drops and checked my vision and didnt see anything wrong. Its been 5 weeks now and my eyes still feel tight and dry .At times I think it is gone but then it comes back. W

since vision is not effected , nothing to worry. fundus may be examined and if normal then symptometic treatment can be taken. Artificial tear drop like refresh eye tear drop may be applied 2times daily. It will be normal soon.
