Eye pain for months. being treated for dry eye and allergic eyes. just started xiidra and just finished tobradex. feels better but pain not gone. several eye exams show normal healthy eyes. could my anxiety be triggering it? anything else i can do?

Normal, healthy eyes are not dry or allergic eyes. Therefore you've responded successfully to the treatments. If your ophthalmologist agrees that there's no longer eye pathology, I recommend seeing a mental health professional who administers stress management or cognitive behavioral therapy which I think will be very helpful for what appears to be a somatic symptom disorder.
