 <a href="/en-ie/c/eye-care-centre/dry-eyes-and-contact-lenses">Dry eyes</a> are pretty common, especially on windy days, in air-conditioned rooms or after working on the computer, but that doesn't mean you need to endure them. <a href="/en-ie/eye-care/dry-eye-treatments">Dry eye treatments</a> are designed to treat any irritations and soothe your eyes in a flash, so you can <a href="/en-ie/c/blog/avoid-dry-eyes">forget the discomfort</a> and get on with enjoying your day.

<div>
 <a href="/en-ie/c/eye-care-centre/dry-eyes-and-contact-lenses" aria-label="link">Dry eyes</a> happen when your body doesn’t produce enough tears to keep them moist and hydrated. Some people are naturally more likely to experience dry eyes, but it can also be caused by a range of external factors.
 
 Working in an air-conditioned environment, for example, can make your eyes more prone to feeling dry or irritated. You can also start to experience these symptoms after using a screen for long hours, particularly if you strain your eyes to focus on what you’re looking at or reading.
 
 Sometimes, it’s possible that wearing <a href="/en-ie/contact-lenses" aria-label="link">contact lenses</a> for extended periods of time can also cause your eyes to feel a little dry. It’s a good idea in this case then to take a break from your lenses or to switch to a new lens with a higher water content. You can also use dry eye treatments to provide relief from the uncomfortable symptoms.

What causes dry eye syndrome?

<div>
 Usually, dry eye syndrome affects both eyes and will give you a gritty, sore feeling that gets worse over the course of the day. In more severe cases, it can continue for long enough for your eyes to become red and even temporarily cause blurry vision.
 
 While no doubt uncomfortable, it's very rare for dry eyes to cause a serious problem and the discomfort can usually be resolved with over-the-counter <a href="/en-ie/eye-care/eye-drops" aria-label="link">eye drops</a> or gels. However, if you're experiencing chronic dry eye or severe dry eye, you should visit a GP or ophthalmologist just to check that it's not a symptom of something else. If a severe case is left untreated, it may also lead to the abrasion of the corneal surface and eye inflammation.

What are the symptoms of dry eye syndrome?

<div>
 One of the fastest and most effective ways of treating dry eyes is using <a href="/en-ie/eye-care/eye-drops" aria-label="link">eye drops</a>. These help to ease the discomfort by returning the moisture to your eyes and are perfect if you need relief while wearing contact lenses. They're known as artificial tears because they mirror the makeup of real ones, meaning that the relief they provide feels both natural and soothing.
 
 Typically, dry eye treatment options like <a href="/en-ie/hycosan-eye-drops" aria-label="link">Hycosan Eye Drops</a> come in small bottles and so are easy to transport around, fitting easily into a pocket or a handbag. This is perfect if you lead a busy life and need instant relief from itchy and watery eyes while you're on the go. You can also get packs of single-use products such as <a href="/en-ie/blink-intensive-tears-vials" aria-label="link">Blink Intensive Tear Vials</a>, which are even smaller and easier to carry around.

How to use eye drops?

<div>
 If you have sensitive skin around your eyes then eye drops might not be the best solution for you, particularly if you suffer from blepharitis, an eye condition, which causes inflammation of the conjunctiva (the outer layer of the eyeballs and the inner layer of the eyelids). <a href="/en-ie/blephasol" aria-label="link">Blephasol gel</a> or <a href="/en-ie/blephaclean" aria-label="link">Blephaclean wipes</a> may be a better approach for treating your symptoms and keeping your eyes feeling fresh and comfortable. To check which treatment will tackle any encountered eye problems or eye infections, make sure to reach out to your optometrist or eye doctor.
 
 Opting for some simple lifestyle changes can also easily reduce recurring dry eyes, especially incorporating certain foods that are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Fresh fish, nuts, and fruits and vegetables, like berries, kale and oranges will increase your tear production, paired with drinking plenty of water, of course. Plus, quick tricks like applying a warm compress, trying a <a href="/exercises-fight/c" aria-label="link">few eye exercises</a>, investing in a humidifier to prevent tear evaporation, and reducing screen time will make a huge difference, too.
