I was DX with Lyme but labs were negative.

I have had many symptoms and now I have having a new one.

My right eye burns off and one and it's blurry...could this be from Lyme??

Could be.

my eyes of burned for several years. Finally

went to a neuro optic Doc. Did many tests on my
otic nerves looking for eye damage. He sees

many lyme patients. Only found I had cronic dry

eye which is commn in lyme...prescribed Restasis and over the counter Optiva for soothing

relief. He did a VEP scan t check for inflamation of the optic nerve and a brain MRI

showing the optic nerve. They look for symptoms of eyes seeing different intensities of light or

different colors in each eye. You should try the over the counter eye drops and have your
regular optometrist check for dry eye.

Could be... please get it checked out.

Don't want to "guess" when it comes to your eyes.

Good luck!!!
