FM, Black eyes and glasses!!

I have been seeing a lot about eyes these last few days. The sticky gooy kind!!! I did post a reply to one. But has anyone had the same problem as I have with my glasses? The fact that wearing them, any weight/kind, gives me black eyes!I try and wear contact lenses for this very reason, but of late I have had the sticky, itchy sore eye thing that seems to be a common theme at the moment. I wondered if it was a kind of alergy? eg. Hay fever. But even taking Piriton along with everything else hasn't helped. Wonder if it is a side effect of any medication? Or just ANOTHER side effect of FM. Does anyone have any ideas? Have been told by opticians that I suffer with 'Dry Eye Syndrom', but I have never had quite this extreme problem. Also have never come across anyone else whos glasses give them balck eyes!! X
