Do you get burning in your eyes for Scleroderma?

I have symptoms of Scleroderma like skin hardening and raynaud's. But I also get burning in the eyes.

But this burning is not felt all the time. I only get it after when I wake up from sleep and wash my eyes with water in the washroom.

I get this burning sensation only when the water comes in contact with my eyes (only after waking up from sleep), is a strange thing for me but the burning is less when cold water is used.

So, I would like to know whether you get this problem in Scleroderma too?

I get really dry eyes so they feel like burning. I use Hycosan extra eyedrops several times a day

Like LadyTrundle I have dry eyes and use Hycosan drops too. You could always go to an optician for an eye test and ask if your eyes are dry. The opticians picked this up when I was first diagnosed .
