Question Title: Diabetic with eye pain

I am a diabetic. I have known for about a
year. I am having a great deal of pain in my right eye lately. It hurts to blink, and the pain is pretty bad if I touch it. I see or feel nothing in it. It is just very sensitive. My sugar level has been higher than normal but I don't know if I should blame the diabetes on all my ills. Is this another of the curses of diabetes? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

I would recommend you see your ophthalmologist for an evaluation. It is hard to speculate but it is not likely related to your diabetes if you have only had the diabetes for a year. This may be related to an eyelid infection or dry eyes.
