  • In this video, I go over the three types of dry eye disease, and the treatment options for each type of dry eyes. I review the dry eye treatment options that are available both with and without a prescription for treating dry eye disease when over the counter artificial tear eye drops are not enough.
    This is NOT a sponsored video, the dry eye treatments I discuss in this video are based on my own clinical experience successfully treating dry eye disease.

      I got a full eye exam & was diagnosed with dry eyes. I was recommended systane or Refresh (omega 3). Both are preservative free. I experience very itchy eyes, which I didn’t have before my appointment and using what was recommended. Can this be from the eye drops?

    Thank you for this video and explaining these issues in so much detail! I am going to ask my ophthalmologist about autologous serum eye drops, since I’m lucky to have very good insurance coverage… until I turn 26 this upcoming January. I do have one question about warm eye compresses, and I was wondering if you had a brand to recommend for patients with deep-set eyes? I tried the Bruder eye compress that many doctors recommend, but it didn’t feel like it made any contact with my eyelids since the structure of the bones surrounding my eye are so much higher than my eyes.

      Thank you for sharing. I also like the Optase eye mask amzn.to/3AbxVvu, in addition to the Bruder mask. I hope it works for you.

    Thank you for your videos! I’ve been suffering from dry eyes for awhile. I wanted to include omega 3 ( fish oil) but I’m allergic to shellfish. I’m not sure if I can take fish oil? Do you have any thoughts on that? I have been taking flaxseed oil supplements but haven’t noticed any difference 😢

    I had cataract conventional surgery in just one eye this year with a corrective lens implanted. This has been a rough allergy summer, and while my other eye without the cataract surgery has been a little itchy and sometimes watery, the eye that did have the surgery has been 10 times worse! Is this normal after this type of surgery? (Now I'm reluctant to have the other eye done). And is there something stronger than Katorolac eye drops to relieve the terrible itching etc symtoms?

    • @eyechannelbyeyesurgeon
      @eyechannelbyeyesurgeon  2 года назад

      I’m sorry to hear that you’re having eye irritation. Although I can’t offer medical advice on this platform, in general, people who have ocular surface disease prior to any eye surgery can feel worse shortly after surgery. This can be partly due to the medication eye drops used post operatively. It is important to consult your eye doctor or eye surgeon if your symptoms are not controlled with your current treatment. I hope this helps.

    I've always had mild dry eye issues, but wearing a God-forsaken mask and goggles at work has made things much worse, as all of the hot air that escapes from my mask gets blasted into my eyes because of the goggles. It makes my life miserable, to be honest. But Blink eyedrops seem to help a lot.
