Chronic dry eye is a painful condition marked by the sensation that your eyes are literally dried out and not producing enough moisture. Dry eye can make it more difficult to focus on certain tasks, especially tasks that involve a certain level of concentration such as reading, driving, and working on the computer.
Dry eyes are a common condition in the United States. Most often, people who have dry eyes are middle-aged or older. An estimated 4.88 million Americans age 50 and older have dry eyes. Of these, over 3 million are women and 1.68 million are men.
Symptoms:
- night driving problems
- discomfort when wearing contacts
- burning, itching, or stinging sensations
- light sensitivity
- eyes that are watery at times, then completely dry at others
- red and sore eyelids
- mucus secreting from the eye in a string-like texture
What Causes Chronic dry eye?
The causes of dry eye syndrome include:
- hormone replacement therapy
- exposure to the wind or dry air, such as constant exposure to a heater during the winter

- LASIK eye surgery
- some medications, including antihistamines, nasal decongestants, birth control pills, and antidepressants
- aging
- long-term contact lens wear
- staring at a computer for long hours

How to Diagnose Chronic dry eye?
- Your doctor will ask about your medical history
- Eye doctor will perform an eye exam to inspect the exterior of your eye, including the eyelids, tear ducts and how you blink
- Will examine your cornea and the interior of your eye
- Will measure the quality of your tear film
How To Treat?
The basic treatments can be divided into 4 major parts:
1. increasing tears
2. maintaining tears
3. triggering tear production
4. healing inflammation
If the condition of dry eyes are mild, it may only need artificial tears. They can be applied as needed less than four times per day.
However, if the eyes don’t change with artificial tears, it may need help keeping tears in your eyes. The tears ducts can be blocked so tears can’t drain.
Prescription eye drops or inserts can stimulate tear production. Increasing intake of omega-3 fatty acids can also help with certain causes of dry eyes.
To reduce inflammation of the eyelids or glands, may have to take an anti-inflammatory drug. Massage, warm compresses, or ointments may also help.
I was haven herpes 2 on my private part. I have had them for about 2 and a bit years. I am so scared what my mates are going to says if there should fined out i have herpes on my private part and due to the virus my girlfriend broke up with me. I have been to the Doctors 9 times to get it treated. They all come back. I have been using Tee Tree Oil and Wartner (You freeze them at home) and they seem to be keeping the smaller herpes small but they can't seem to treat the larger ones. They don't get any bigger, but then they can't shrink as much. They get smaller a little part at a time. At least they are getting smaller! As soon as I see a new herpes appearing, then I treat it. At the moment I have been using Tee Tree twice a week and then using Wartner every 2 weeks. I was wondering if there was any other information about how to get rid of it. I am only a teenager and I hate it most when it get pi-chins me to scratch it, it get sweets when scratching it most times! I want to get rid of it so bad!
