A member asked:
Do i have cancer if my eyes hurt when i wake up?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No relation: Eye pain upon waking has no relationship with the presence or absence of cancer. The most common etiology is a form of dry eyes called meibomitis. Eye trauma can also do the same. You should see an eye md for an evaluation.

It is not a specific: It s not a specific sign of cancer. However, the presence of it does not rule out anything. Better see your dr and find the cause (most likely, not cancer). Best wishes.
