“Tired eyes” & your experiences - spetzal - 12-24-2022

Using PAP at any setting seems to causes my eyeballs to feel tired, and i get deep bags underneath.  Anyone have anecdotal experiences with this phenomenon?

Its interesting to note that if i spend a night without CPAP, that feeling doesnt exist and my under eye area is significantly more normal looking…..of course then there is the low oxygen issue!

Sounds as if you may be leaking air through the tear duct. It is not a common problem, but not a rarity. Try an dry eye gel. Check out this thread http://www.apneaboard.com/forums/Thread-Product-Review-Eye-Drops for ideas of what to try.
