What is Dry Eye Syndrome?
Simply put, dry eye is the result of not being able to produce enough tears to keep the eye comfortable. Without a film of tears, spread over the eye by a blink, good vision is not possible.
Did you know...
- One symptom of dry eye is an excessive production of tears?
- Some of the causes of dry eye include: hormonal changes, medications and Demodex (which are mites that live on your hair follicles, including your eyelashes). Don't worry though; everyone has Demodex. It becomes a problem when there's an infestation, but we have an easy treatment available!
