Understanding Dry Eye
Dry eye is a condition in which a person’s eyes do not produce enough high-quality tears to keep them lubricated and nourished. Tears are crucial for maintaining the health of the front surface of the eye and for ensuring clear vision. Dry eye syndrome is a common condition that will affect most people at some point in their lifetime. For some, the condition may be temporary and can be alleviated with little or no intervention. However, for some sufferers, the condition will be chronic, and they may experience repeated or ongoing episodes during their lifetime.
