Dry Eye

What is Dry Eye?

Dry eyes is a common condition in which your eyes do not produce enough tears or the quality of your tears is poor. This does not preclude you from crying, and in some cases, your eyes may even water more. Tears serve to keep the front surface of the eye (the cornea) moist and healthy. When your tear supply is low or of poor quality, your eyes may become itchy and uncomfortable. Dry eye syndrome can affect anyone, but it is more common in women and people over the age of 65.

Symptoms of dry eye include:

• Gritty eyes
• Feeling like something is in your eyes
• Stinging or burning eyes
• Heavy eyelids Blurred vision Watery eyes
