A member asked:
My eyes feel really dry and irritated? what drops or treatment do i need?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Artificial tears: Try a good lubricating artificial tear 4-6 times during the day. If this doesn't help or if symptoms persist, see your eye doctor for an exam and other recommendations. If you wear contacts you may want to try glasses for a brief period until better.
