Dry Eye Syndrome

Does it ever feel like your eyes are gritty or scratchy?  Like something is stuck in them?

You may have a condition called Dry Eye, an extremely common problem that adults experience.  When your eyes are not well lubricated, they become irritated causing blurred vision, eye fatigue, mucous discharge, and discomfort.  There are several causes for dry eye, including age, environmental factors such as smoke, dust, allergens, and medical conditions like pregnancy, menopause, and rheumatoid arthritis.  Advanced research offers a variety of artificial tears and ointments that help keep your eyes lubricated and you discomfort free.
