Irritation in eyes.
I live in hilly area with temperature below 30 in summers and around 0-5 in winters. I am myopic with -7 in both eyes. Whenever temperatures starts falling and it becomes cold, irritation starts in my both eyes. As I am preparing for exams and i have to read books so it becomes very hard for me to focus and pain starts in both eyes.
