Winter brings its own set of challenges for eye health, with colder temperatures and drier air exacerbating symptoms of Dry Eye.
What is Dry Eye
Dry eye occurs when the eyes don't produce enough tears or the right quality of tears to keep them properly lubricated, leading to discomfort and irritation.
What can I do to alleviate symptoms?
To combat dry eye during the winter months, it's essential to take proactive steps to keep the eyes moist and comfortable. Using a humidifier indoors can help add moisture to the air, alleviating dryness. Additionally, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water and incorporating omega-3 fatty acids into your diet can promote tear production.
