Dry Eye and You

If you experience dryness, burning, grittiness, or feel something strange in your eye, then it could mean that you have dry eye.  Most symptoms worsen in the following situations: in winter when the air is drier, in air conditioned rooms where air is always blowing, or at work where you look at a computer screen all day. In addition to noticing your dry eye symptoms, it is important to note when they happen. 

The best way for you to find out whether you have dry eye or not is to check with an ophthalmologist. They can help figure out if you have the condition by running a few simple tests that look at the health of your tear film. It’s important to know that if your dry eye is left untreated for a long time, it can damage your eyes.
