💦 Simple daily habits can make a big difference in improving Dry Eye Disease (DED) symptoms.

6️⃣ Here are 6 helpful ways to care for your eyes at home.

🐠 High-quality Omega-3 supplements support healthy tear production and reduce inflammatory causes of DED.

🥤 Drinking enough water throughout the day supports overall tear production.

💧 High-quality Lubricating Eye Drops keep the eye surface comfortable and hydrated. Make sure to grab the Preservative-Free tears.

💻 Making environmental adjustments like - reducing direct airflow to the eyes, using a humidifier, and taking breaks from digital screens - make a big difference with eye comfort and DED.

🧼 High-Quality Eyelid Hygiene - Gentle daily special attention and cleaning of the eyelids helps remove debris and bacteria from the eyelid margins.

💄 Routinely removing all types of cosmetics from the eye area prevents clogging of the oil glands that produce the tears in our eyes.

📞 If your DED symptoms persist, give us a call and we can help you find relief. (515) 955-7777

💧 Dry Eye Disease isn't just about "not enough tears." In fact, several different issues can cause the symptoms people feel every day.

🔐 The key to effective treatment is a customized plan that has identified which cause is affecting your eyes.

👀 As a DED Screener, we evaluate not only your symptoms, but we evaluate your tear film, conjunctiva, and eyelids (internally and externally) to determine if a more thorough Dry Eye Disease Evaluation is needed.

🏡 If your eyes feel irritated, watery, tired, or dry, give us a call or stay tuned for our next post on…
