Understanding Dry Eye Syndrome

Dry eye syndrome (DES) is when your eyes don’t produce enough quality tears, leading to discomfort and potential vision issues. There are different types, including aqueous deficiency and evaporative dry eye, each affecting the tear film differently. This imbalance can cause various symptoms, hindering your vision and overall eye health.

Is Dry Eye Causing Your Eye Discomfort?

The common symptoms of DES include:

  • Persistent dryness
  • Stinging or burning sensation
  • Redness
  • Blurry vision
  • Light sensitivity
  • Discomfort with contact lenses
  • Watery eyes
  • Difficulty driving at night
  • Eye fatigue
  • Stringy mucus in or around the eyes
