Dry eyes are a common condition that affect many people. Suffering with dry eyes doesn’t necessarily mean you have an eyesight problem, as there are many reasons why your eyes may feel “dry”, as well as itchy, sore, gritty or watery. The primary cause is when your tears dry up too quickly or you don’t make enough tears, which can happen through lifestyle issues such as wearing contact lenses, walking in the wind or dust, smoking, drinking alcohol or looking at screens for a long time without taking a break.
Dry eyes can also be more common in people over 50 but there are natural supplements that can help ease the symptoms, including lubricant eye drops and their accompanying capsules.
