Has anyone had problems opening their eyes firs thing in the morning i cant open them until I have had Sinemet. I need to find out if it’s too much Sinemet. Or is it the condition I don’t know anybody with this problem. Ithink its a type,of dystonia as sometime my eye get very stiff and stretch anc sometimes at bedtime i find it hard to close them as soon as shut them they spring open again

Mine are kind of like glued shut. I spit on my finger and the spit dissolves the gluey stuff. Go figure.

Connie, I have not heard about this before. How annoying!! I am sure someone on here will know.

My vision gets blurry, every day. I use eye drops, but they are still blurry.

God bless you♥️

Lovingly, Stargate

Mine is related to dry eyes. The eyelid is literally stuck to my eye. That can’t be good for the eyes. I rub them gently for a minute and they eventually open. Then I use a moisturizing eye drop. (I forget what it’s called, but it’s over-the-counter.)

My symptoms are on my left side and my left eye stays closed when I wake up (I don't take meds at night) until I concentrate on opening it.

Yes as of recently my one eyelid stays shut for just a moment like it's stuck. Just one eye, a little scary! Add to the list!

My right eyelid has started feeling like a rubber band when I open it.
