  Well, in my opinion, lyme disease can lead to eye pain in some degree. First, you should know that Lyme disease is an infection that is transmitted through the bite of a tick infected with a bacterium called Borrelia burgdorferi. And because of that, of course, some symptoms may occur too. For example, you may feel fatigue all the time. Also, high fever can be possible. By the way, high blood pressure can just occur to you. And at that moment, it will also affect your eyes, leading to some eye problems. What is the most common one is that it can just cause eye pain. Also, eye floaters can occur too. Anyway, just be careful about it.
