Demystifying Dry Eye

 

Getting to the Basics

Dry Eye occurs when your eyes fail to produce enough tears or when the quality of your tears isn’t sufficient to maintain comfortable lubrication. While it may sound straightforward, Dry Eye can be a complex issue with a significant impact on your daily life.

 

The Science Behind It

Your tears consist of three crucial layers: an oily layer, a watery layer, and a mucous layer. Each layer serves a unique purpose in keeping your eyes lubricated. When any of these layers are compromised, Dry Eye becomes a problem.

 

Exploring Blepharitis

 

Unravelling the Details

Blepharitis is the inflammation of the eyelid margins, often leading to red, swollen eyelids and the formation of crust around the base of your eyelashes. It’s frequently triggered by a bacterial infection or underlying conditions like dandruff or rosacea. Yes, it can be as irritating as it sounds!
