Dupixent and eyes problem ?

Hi everyone.

I suffered from severe eczema and dupixent saved me for 1 and half year.

But, some weeks ago (~5w) I experienced heavy headaches with my right eye in pain.

My right eye was not red, it felt dry (sometimes itchy) my sight was a bit blurry at first.

I wasn't able to read and if I try it caused Instant headaches.

Today my eye isn't blurry anymore but I still have trouble. My right eye's image is very slightly darker and the colour is not the same as the left eye either. (blue/red difference, but not always visible)

It's not a big difference, I needed 3 weeks to really tell what is wrong and I'm not sure yet today. But it bothers me because I feel like I have difficulty seeing properly (it's worse with fatigue)

I already have seen 2 different ophthalmologists that found nothing, even with a retinal scan and think my eye sight is good. But it really bother me. And I don't want it to worsen.

My dermatologist doesn't know what to do since other doctors don't find anything.

Forecasting to see a third ophthalmologist.

I'm thinking of stopping dupixent, but don't want eczema back all over my body. Any advice or similar experience? Should I stop the drugs? I'm very worried about this situation.

Thanks for your advices.

edit : I said both found nothing, but it's not totally true, the first doctor said I have dry eyes. And give me drops. It slightly relief the dryness, but I don't see any other enhancements
