Are dry eyes normal with CPAP?

Posted by Sandy on August 08, 2002 at 12:06:05:

I'm using the Breeze with nasal pillows. No leaking that I'm aware of and no air blowing into my eyes either. But I'm waking up with dry eyes anyway. I'm not having a problem with dryness in my nose or anywhere else, just my eyes. I had minor dry eyes before CPAP, but it has gotten a lot worse with CPAP. Is this normal?
