Help docs! my eyes are always dry and irritated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dry eyes!: No cure, but you can start with artificial tears routinely (one drop 4 times a day every day), oral omega-3's, and warm compresses. Next, medicated drops (restasis, mild steroid drops, NSAID drops) or punctal occlusion may be helpful.
