Can Tinnitus Cause Eye Stress?

Hi, I suffer from tinitus, it is bad enough to only have 50% hearing in my left ear for most sound pitches. I have just started getting bad eye stress, I say stress as it is very hard to look at things, anything really. I also suffer from sever sexual frustration, I say sever as I get chest muscle pains from it at times. I have found that my tinitus is getting worse after each attack of severe sexual desire. One thing to note is I had lower back surgery in January last year and the tinitus really only came on after that. I have always had a very healthy sexual desire, and married to the same lovely lady for 32 years however my wife has extremely low sexual desire. Tow or three times a year is sufficient for her, I try not to push her for it though and am not blaming her for it. So, after all that, is it possible that my tinitus is causing my eyes to have this sometimes unbearable sensation. regards, Doug

Hi,

Tinnitus getting exaggerated by sexual desire indicates that your tinnitus is vascular as the sexual desire increases the blood flow to all parts of body; enhancing the tinnitus.
GET MRI and MRA that is angiography of brain and mastoids to know any vascular anomaly and get treated accordingly.
Also check blood pressure during such episodes.
Other symptoms of eye stress and so on are not directly related to the tinnitus but all can have the same cause.
Also needed to be thought about your unsatisfied sexual desires as per the history you have provided, please discuss this too with your Doctor to get a proper diagnosis and management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
