Understanding Dry Eye

Dry eye occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to uncomfortable symptoms and potentially damage your eyes over time.

Symptoms include:

  • Burning or stinging sensation
  • Gritty or sandy feeling
  • Redness and irritation
  • Blurred vision
  • Excessive tearing (a reflex response)
  • Light sensitivity
  • Eye fatigue
  • Difficulty wearing contact lenses
