This is some useful tips if you always use computer or laptop everyday. You need to treat your dry eyes like you treat your wife or family. It because we need to use our eyes for many thing like work, drive, eating and many thing. Without eyes, we really hard to do many thing.
- Use artificial tears. Artificial tears which can be purchased at your local drugstore offer a quick and effective solution for treating dry eyes. They are safe and can be used when needed. Start by applying them four to five times a day and see how your symptoms respond. Avoid using over the counter eye drops that advertise that they “get the red out”. These drops may reduce redness but won’t treat the dry eyes.
- Schedule breaks from your computer work. When you’re working at your computer screen, stop every hour and take a two minute break. During this time, lie back in your chair and close your eyes. This will help to moisten and re-lubricate your eyes so they feel less dry and irritated. To treat dry eyes, do this on a regular basis until it becomes second nature. This simple practice can improve dry eye symptoms significantly.
- Could it be your medications? Certain medications such as antidepressants and blood pressure medications can contribute to dry eyes. Check with your doctor and see if your current medications may be playing a role in producing your dry eye symptoms.
- Change your work environment. Is your office environment unusually dry? The lack of humidity in your work environment can be a factor in producing dry eye symptoms. To treat dry eyes caused by a dry office, add a humidifier to your work environment. This is particularly helpful in the cold weather months when humidity levels drop.
- No need to use computer or laptop anymore. Can you do that? Haha..
