What Is Dry Eye Syndrome?


Tears provide moisture and lubrication to help you see and keep your eyes comfortable. Tears come from glands around your eye. Dry eye is used to describe dysfunctional tear syndrome. Having inadequate quality of tears affects both the cornea and the conjunctiva.

The chances of acquiring dry eye increases with age and among post-menopausal women. Air conditioning, heat or environmental surroundings could dry out your tears. Dry eye could be a side effect of certain drugs like antihistamines. Some diseases that can affect dry eyes is rheumatoid arthritis, collagen vascular diseases, and Sjogren’s syndrome.

The symptoms are discomfort and sensitivity to light, the eye may become dry, red and inflamed. Your eyes may have a gritty, sandy feeling and a feeling like there is something in your eye. They may feel itchy, and even some blurry vision.

Prescription and lubricating eye drops can reduce dryness. We suggest consulting with Bolduc Eye Care for other tips or help with dry eye.
