Have Retinal Tears In Eyes, Sinus Problem, Sinus Headache, Tender Nose, Pain In Eye. Treatment?
i have retinal tears in my left and right eyes. I also have sinus problems, lately I get sinus headaches , below my cheeks, very tender on top of my nose. I am nervous because I was laying down on the sofa two days ago, and I felt a sharp pain in my left eye, (I had laser eye surgery in Dec.30, 2011), could that have caused my sinus problems? Very concerned and scared.

hello,
retinal tear does not cause sinus problem,
but blowing nose forcefully can increase your intraocular pressure and increase retinal tear.you should better avoid forceful blowing of nose.
if you are having pain better visit ophthalmologits for retinal examination.
for sinus problem you can do steam inhalation
take care
