Good morning, Everyone!
My husband has been diagnosed with CBD he is now in about the 6th year of his battle just recently he has been complaining of his eyes watering, particularly his left eye it is almost like a slow leak with constant drainage . Has anyone else experienced this?
Also, in the last few days he is experiencing leg twitching while it is not painful, it seems to be uncomfortable. Any ideas?
My husband has a similar problem. The ophthalmologist said that his eyes were dry and the surface of his eyes was wrinkled from the dryness. The oil glands in his eyelids were also clogged. I treat his eyes every morning doing the following:
Moist heat to his eyelids for 5 minutes to help clear the clogged oil glands
Clean his eyelids with an eyelid cleaner
Put drops in his eyes
I have been doing this for 2 years and it definitely helps. The ophthalmologist says his eyes are mush better.
This what I use:
Optase Moist Heat Mask
Optase Eyelid Cleansing Wipes Preservative Free
Optase Dry Eye Intense Drops Preservative Free
I buy it at Walgreens, but you can find it almost any place.
Hope this helps.

Hi, my mum is in the final stages of CBD we believe. Mum has not had issues with her eyes watering . Mum has had leg jerks for about a year now which we believe are the elements of Parkinson’s trait within the disease. They have got progressively worse. They never used to hurt but the jerks have become stronger and they are starting to hurt. Mum is on a slow release pain relief patch for her pain.
Hi Indiana-Girl!

• Dry eyes/watery eyes.
The first thing is to evaluate if there is any damage to the cornea.
Erosions in the cornea have been described that lead to a blinking higher than normal that leads to further irritation of the cornea (AJK2001).
If there is not a problema with cornea have in mind dry eyes is a classic problema and drops of artificial tears to the eyes or physiological serum upon request (more often as the disease progresses) is a good solution.
If you have problems applying the drops "Optrex spray" is an alternative. Also warm moist compresses help. Wash your hands beforehand and clean the eyelids with not irritating baby shampoo. and after use a gauze sterilized by each eye, moistened in physiological serum.
Attention. It can be also an allergic problem.
To improve the lubrication of the eye we have tested "Hycosan Extra" (Sodium hyaluronate 0.2%) (Aquoral is similar product) by applying it 3 times a day. It bothers a little in the first seconds after applying. Our experience has been positive and we have noticed that the internal redness of the eyelids has diminished.
For hydration,Systane Hydration UD helps but nothing really works for long. (Hound25).
Consulting an ophthalmologist who has experience in PSP is recommended.
More informations about:
• Clarity produces "photophobia" and irritation of the internal eyelids. The patient used sunglasses frequently and applied artificial tear drops or saline serum upon request (At least 3 times a day). Sometimes suffers headaches and eyes pain on afternoons. We suspect that the origin is photophobia. We usually neutralize them with paracetamol.
• Lizzigator_2022 suggest:”symptom as watery eyes are a sign or ‘dry eyes’ peculiarly which can make the eyes extremely uncomfortable. I use Optrex eye drops and apply it regularly through the day and my mother gets good relief from them and her eyes stop watering. Any off the shelf dry eye product will do the trick.”
Hug an luck.

My wife's eyes watered from day one of the disease. Nothing that the doctors recommended worked and she learned to "live" with it for a total of five years.
My husbands eyes drive him crazy ! They water constantly. One day it will be the left next day right. It swaps out. His nose runs constantly. Drives him and me crazy. He goes thru Kleenexes like crazy with his eyes and nose. I put moisture drops in his eyes 2 or 3 times a day. Some days they don’t run at all, then they will start again. I guess it’s something he’s going to have to endure. I feel so sorry for him. You can see the tears roll down his face. Blessings to you ♥️
