Sore eyes: if the eyes are sore, that is ok. If you put pressure on the globe of your eyes and feels hard and painful, you need to see you doctor for it

?? dryness: Your symptoms may be due to dryness. In cold weather the evaporation rate increases and may cause symptoms. Try a humidifier at night and use artificial teat drops at least 3 times a day. If symptoms don't improve get reexamined
