Understanding Dry Eye: A Common Eye Condition
Dry eye occurs when the eyes don’t produce enough quality tears or when tears evaporate too quickly. Tears are essential for maintaining the health of the eye’s front surface, providing moisture, lubrication, and protection against infections. Factors like aging, hormonal changes, environmental conditions, and certain medications can disrupt the tear film, leading to dry eye symptoms.
There are two main types of dry eye:
- Aqueous tear deficiency: This type of dry eye is caused by not producing enough tears.
- Evaporative dry eye: This type of dry eye is caused by tears evaporating too quickly. This can be due to problems with the oil layer of the tear film or meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).
What to Look Out For
Dry eye symptoms can vary in severity and may include:
- Irritation: Persistent itching or burning sensation in the eyes.
- Redness: Bloodshot appearance due to inflammation.
- Discomfort: A general feeling of discomfort or soreness in the eyes.
- Gritty Sensation: Feeling like there’s something in your eye.
- Blurred Vision: Vision may become temporarily blurry.
- Light Sensitivity: Increased sensitivity to light.
- Tearing: Paradoxically, the eyes may produce excessive tears as a response to dryness.
- Stringy Mucus: Discharge that may be stringy or sticky.
- Difficulty with Contact Lenses: Discomfort or intolerance to wearing contact lenses.
- Eye Fatigue: Tired eyes, especially after prolonged visual tasks.
