How to Treat Dry Eyes
Tips for customers
- Drink plenty of water1
- Take frequent breaks from computer work or reading1
- Turn air conditioning off and keep heating as low as possible, using a bowl of water to humidify the room if necessary1
- Avoid wearing contact lenses for long periods of time1
Conventional treatment for dry eyes
- Pharmacy is the front line of treatment for temporary, mild dry eyes
- A wide range of lubricant eye drops (e.g. hypromellose & sodium hyaluronate) act as artifical tears and can offer temporary relief of symptoms1
However, many sufferers avoid treating their dry eyes because they do not like putting treatments into the eye or find it difficult to use drops9
- Applying treatments into the eyes can be messy and inconvenient, with sufferers unwilling to disrupt their schedule for treatment, particularly if they are wearing eye make-up or contact lenses10
