Understanding Dry Eye

Dry eye can significantly affect your eye health and overall comfort. It occurs when your eyes fail to produce enough tears or when tears evaporate too quickly, leading to discomfort and irritation.

Symptoms

Recognizing the Signs of Dry Eye

Dry eye is a common condition that occurs when your tears don't provide adequate lubrication for your eyes. This happens either when you don't produce enough tears or when your tears evaporate too quickly, leaving your eyes feeling uncomfortable and irritated.

Your tears are made up of three layers: oil, water, and mucus. Problems with any of these layers can lead to dry eye symptoms. You may experience a stinging or burning sensation, scratchiness, stringy mucus, sensitivity to light, redness, or even watery eyes as your body tries to compensate for the dryness.

Several factors can contribute to dry eye, including aging, hormonal changes, certain medications, medical conditions like diabetes or autoimmune disorders, environmental factors like wind or dry air, and prolonged screen time that reduces your blink rate.

The good news is that dry eye is very treatable. Treatment options range from over-the-counter artificial tears and prescription eye drops to minor procedures that help retain moisture. Lifestyle changes like taking screen breaks, using a humidifier, and wearing wraparound sunglasses can also provide relief.

With proper diagnosis and treatment, most people with dry eye can find significant improvement in their comfort and quality of life.
