    Be sure you get your eyes checked by an Ophthalmologist so he can catch any potential problems like secondary Glaucoma, etc.

    Eye “involvement” is sometimes thought of as a separate disease really. It is apparently your immune system attacking the muscles of the eyes causing them to swell, hence the protruding eyes. At least yours are watery! Mine are as dry as a bone most of the time!

    Does anyone know WHY there is eye involvement? My rapid heart and tremors
    have subsided over the last two months — but the watery eyes and swollen
    lids continue. Got any suggestions for easing the discomfort?

    Thanks, All, for your wonderful comments on the bulletin board!
