Hi does anyone get sore eyes taking Pregabalin I have been on them 4 weeks and my eyes sting.I bought Moisture eye drops to see if this would help but it does not help much.Not sure if this is a side effect of taking them.Feels like I have been rubbing them.Thanks Jive Ace.

I have just checked webMD and its not on the side effect list, but is probably a symptom of the FMS - some can suddenly make an appearance even if you have had FMS for years....

Hope this helps xx
