Thank you so much for your answer I found it very useful. I have a high blood pressure I use Co Diovan (12.5/160 mg) I do not know if this medicine from the same group you have mentioned in your answer that may cause eye problem. beside I do have a RA as well for 5 yearsControlled by medication. as I explained the problem happened suddenly without any notice and no tears produced at all not even a minimum. I saw the doctor who examined m my eyes very welland said this is dry eyes problem. advise to use Restasis eye drops for 6 month which i started 2 month now without improvement.
