I had this problem last summer; I was on 15 mg of Methimazole at the time; not only chlorine in pool burning also the salt water from ocean. Never had that before and then diagnosed with moderate thyroid eye disease in late 2011. I was told just keep using the lubricating drops by my thyroid eye doctor as the TED is making my eyes very dry. In fact off of the Methimazole since May 2012 when I had RAI and using the lubricating drops, I am finding both pool and beach water not as irritating. I was not used to that intense of burning either; good luck with this…beach
