For anybody struggling with dry eyes. Try the eyebrow exercise. Lift each one, one at a time like ”the rock” look up who the rock is and his famous eyebrow lift lol. Do these for about 30 minutes. Be sure to switch eyebrows! Nobody will share this information and many sites have took my comments down. This has stopped my dry eye completely and it is no where to be found. In”and love you all. #defeatdryeye

Hi Dr. Thank you for your advice. My eyes are very dry but have improved over time. I use Omega 3, Systane Ultra drops PF, Celluvisc drops if they are very dry due to weather conditions. Green tea steam eye bath, helps the inflammation. I use a small humidifier at night beside my bed. I hope everyone gets some relief.

Maqui berry cleared up my dry eye, which was severe. 1/2 tsp of the powder each morning, dissolved in a half glass of water. I don't know how or why it works, but it does. Worth a try if you have this condition; it costs me about $10 for a 3-4 month supply.

A simple and amazing solution for my dry eye has been an eye vitamin using the AREDS2 formula (the particular brand is not important). This formula causes my eyes to feel 95% better and I don't need to use eye drops anymore. It worked for a friend of mine as well. I'm not sure why this simple solution is never discussed. One ophthalmologist thinks it's the Vitamin E in the formula. But when I stop taking it, within 2-3 days the dry eye comes back. It definitely works for me. I'm so glad to have one less health problem to worry about.

Dry eyes are not always a "stand alone" problem. Sometimes dry eyes are a symptom of autoimmune issues (which, btw content creator, thank you for mentioning this). When my rheumatologist put me on hydroxychloroquine, the symptoms were slightly reduced. What really gave me great benefit was having tear duct plug placed and I'm now looking into having my tear ducts cauterized so that they are no longer functional. Yes, I'd rather have what little tears I do produce make me look like I'm crying a bit.

You are so correct about those recommended meds for dry eye! I cannot afford them. I have Sjogren's and working at a computer all my life, I have serious dry eye. When I experienced Bells Palsy the eye doctor prescribed an antibiotic gel, which I periodically put in my eyes at night and makes a great difference in my dry eyes. When I do use tears, (CLEAR EYES) my eyes itch so badly for quite some time and I think is part of ALLERGIES. After listening to the entire video I realize I NEED TO TOSS CLEAR EYES in the trash!!

I used to take a supplement by theratears which contains some fish oil and other beneficial nutrients. After about 3 weeks I noticed that my eyes were more lubricated. That and some moisturizing drops used to help. I can't quite afford everything so I haven't used these capsules in a few years, but I might try them again. I'm going to keep following you since you definitely seem to care about other people and give valid and informative information. Thank you so much!

I have had red eyes for years, making it look like I haven't slept or was intoxicated. My right eye gets red the worst and its eyelids will be partially closed if I'm really tired, which is odd. My eye doctor keeps telling me it's dry eyes, yet I've been using Systane for years and nothing has really changed much. In modern day society we are on computers and our phones often, but I always make sure I blink a lot. I do have allergies so that probably factors in too and none of the over the counter medications make a difference. I've even been using Lumify to get the red out, at the recommendation of my eye doctor. But it doesn't really keep the red out for long and it's not supposed to be used more than 4 times a day. It gets frustrating. Oh and I've been taking Fish Oil capsule for around 20 years.

I prefer silicone goggles to the overnight ointments. My eyes are moist when I awake each morning. I feel that the use of ointments made my MG problem worse, clogging the oil glands even worse. I also take 4800 mg of fish oil (2400 in the AM and again in the PM). Restasis works to alleviate the inflammation, but has done nothing to change my situation. Retaine is my go to as far as drops. I have been using Restasis since the drug hit the market over a decade ago. I’ve tried Lacrisert and the expensive NOT covered by insurance treatment (Lipiflow)and punctile plugs. None worked for me.😊

Thanks for the list of products! I live in a dry climate, my eyes get dry, and i never know what to buy. Now I do! Also, i make warm compresses using a moistened clean COTTON washcloth that I fold up and microwave for 5-10 seconds. So soothing. Thank you again.

I SUBSCRIBED Immediately! I wanna know what you use on your Face? I have never seen such skin. I had a Eye Exam last week and they discovered my lower tear ducts are dry. She asked me if I have seasonal allergies. I said yes, I do. I said I carry Drops. But now I know what are better drops. I heard about the Red Eye Relief Drops back in the 90’s how they were not good for the eyes because of restriction. Thank You for your Video.

I started having bad dry eyes a few years ago. It is worse in summer under sunlight and indoor in winter with heater on. I had to pull over on the road and in highways at time because my eyes hurt so bad and got watering. I couldn't open my eyes even though I was wearing two sunglasses and a hat with sunvisor. I tried some eye drops but it only worked short period of time. Then I got my eyes swellen in the morning, especially conjunctivas, it got like my eyes were sucked some waters and were about sticked out of eye lids. I saw an eye doctor for it but he just said it was dry eyes and told me use any eye drops. I was very dispointed ans did look through most eye drops. Then I picked up Systein complete at Walmart. It worked better than other drops. Then I have been taking some supplements for eyes ans Omega 3. I boiled water with cinamon, green tea, marygold, ginsang, other herbs and drank more water. So it was a lot better this winter but it's getting warmer in Georgia. My eyes have started irritating this morning when I woke up. I got tears and couldn't open my eyes for a few minutes. I just found your channel today and watched some for dry eyes. I would like to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your knowledge. You are awsome doctor. I will try to watch all your videos if possible. You are so helpful. Thanks again♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

I put my cell phone in dark mode and less brightness. I still have same symptoms but feel a lot better. I am taking omega 3 and some supplement for eyes. I CHANGED TO DIET REGIME TO LOTS OF VEGES AND SOME FRUITS AND SOME NUTS, such as carrots blue berries, wallets, sunflower seeds, pine nuts, peanuts, etc. I hope you gets better and try to have healthy diets and the same eye drop, Systane complete. A eye doctor gave me a subscription for a steroid eye drop, but I don't want to mess up my eyes with Steroids yet. I just have been using Systane complete. I hope this help you.

I suffer from severe dry eyes and have for many years. My doctor put me on Restasis and just as pointed out in this video it took months before it delivered results but eventually it did help a great deal and after more than year of agony and countless sleepless nights things began to get better. Having tried more than a dozen different brands of eye drops I found that all but one not only didn't help but actually irritated my eyes. Even the supposedly superior and very expensive Oasis was a complete failure! The one that worked for me was TheraTears preservative free. In addition I use warm compresses twice a day: 15 minutes in the morning 30 minutes at night. I tried various commercially available ones and they didn’t hold the heat from my microwave for more than a few minutes. I read about creating your own compresses by placing a handful of rice in one of the ankle high nylon stockings that women use and then tying a know above the rice. This allows you to customize the size of the compress to fit your eye socket. I heat mine in a microwave (times vary depending upon the microwave so you have to experiment) and then wrap them in a small microfiber towel. Initially I apply them over each eye on the side with two layers of fabric and then as the rice cools I switch to a single layer of fabric by rotating the compress. Eventually I totally remove the fabric and place the individual compresses on my eyelids. By doing this I get a full 25 to 30 minutes of just the right amount of heat. I also clean my eyelids once a day with Occusoft foam cleaner. An absolutely incredible source of information and support is the dry eye foundation at www.dry eye foundation.com.

Amazon has many different kinds of masks specifically for dry eyes. Some are “self-heating,” some go in the microwave, some provide warmth and moisture. The list is long and I’ve found they have the best options, price points vary of course but most are very affordable.
