A member asked:

Is sensetive eye plus for glasses or contacts or both, idk because the glasses the doctor prescribed me didnt work and my eyes still feel dry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dry eyes: If your glasses " didn't work" you have the wrong prescription. Dry eyes are not a vision problem however. You need to see proper ophthalmologist for correct prescription and he/she will also give eye drops to control the dry eyes. Please see an MD. But yes, glasses better than contacts if you have sensitive eyes
