Dry Eye is a chronic condition that needs to be managed regularly, rather than ‘cured’. Just like a chronic skin condition, such as eczema, you need to manage it daily to avoid flare-ups of symptoms.
Making sure the eyelids are healthy and using the correct lubricant eye drops (also called artificial tears) is key. Your optometrist or pharmacist can recommend a daily regime for you to follow that will reduce symptoms and make your eyes comfortable again.
It is also important to eat a balanced diet that
includes Omega – 3 fatty acids (beneficial for the oil-producing glands in the eyelids), and to make sure you stay hydrated all day.
Thealoz® Duo is ideal for the daily management of Dry Eye. These preservative-free Dry Eye drops can be used as often as required, and are suitable for use with contact lenses.
