    I developed severe dry eye suddenly a couple of years ago. The doctor sent me home with a variety of drops that did not help. I also tried the warm compress which provided no relief whatsoever. I then came across an article during my research about vitamin D deficiency and dry eye. I found that interesting as I spend a great deal of time inside and do not get much vitamin D from my diet. I started a vitamin D supplement and my symptoms improved significantly within a week. I added fish oil as well and symptoms have not returned.

      I recently went into a visit for dry eyes. The doctor looked into my eyes with the light. After he was done I asked him how my eyes looked and if they looked healthy. The optometrist said he didn't look and that I was only there for dry eyes and that I would need to make another appointment! WTF...He spent a several minutes explaining why he didn't check the health of my eyes and how I would need to make another appointment. As his lips were moving I kept thinking to myself the he spent more time explaining why he didn't check the health of my eyes than the time it would have taken him to "look"...What's wrong with people...!!

His eyes bother him so much, both of them--feeling like there's something in them. He saw our eye doctor last week who said everything looks good. He recommended the preservative free drops and warm compresses. I didn't know about the other options for relief that he can try. Thanks again.

    have had dry eye issues, specifically recurrent cornea abrasions, for the last 4 years. I have tried EVERYTHING.: bandage contac lenses (3x), all brands of eye drops, humidifier, Bruder mask 3x a day followed by massage, =ointment nightly, autologous serum, fish oil supplements, three one-touch treatments to express the glands, three IPL treatments, and four keretectomies! Finally, I found something that helps: nightly goggles. So simple, and after all I've had to endure for the last 4 years!

    Love this channel! Very comprehensive & doesn’t repeat the same recommendations that the Optometrists I’ve seen recommend, which are meant for people who are either uneducated, or are children. NONE of the things I’ve done, including trying MANY contacts on the market (even those giant ones that I can’t recall the name of at the moment), have stopped my dry eye, thereby enabling me to wear contacts again. I have to wear glasses, which I hate! This started when I was in my early 30s and it didn’t matter what State I lived in-dry or humid. So I got RK done, which was great for a couple years, then as you know, it wound up not being long-term and has caused me additional problems.

    Thank you for a great, highly educational video about a problem that must be very common, and one that certainly bothers me. I have been using the Systane eye drops, on your recommendation.
    I also got a wet wipe warmer. The kind that parents have in their nursery for baby wipes. When I wake up in the morning I grab several warm wipes and I press them over my eyes until all the heat is out of the wipes. It's so soothing. And that is how I clean my eyes in the morning with those wipes after the heat has transferred through my lids.
    I do feel that it is helping my Meibomian glands to release their oils. And when I want to use an Ocusoft Lid Scrub wet wipe, I put it in my wipe warmer for a half an hour first. That way it's warm. But the ocusoft lid scrub wipes are slightly harsh. Prefer the baby wipes. Those are my tips!
    Thanks for all you do!

    Hey Doc, just wanted to say thank you. I have been having dry eyes for the last 6 months, and last month got the 1st stye of my life (which seemed to resolve but then became a hard lump in my eye lid). I followed your instructions on the warm eye compress, omega 3, and disposable eye drops and a week later it's almost totally healed! (The bump). You really helped me while I've been sheltering at home. Thanks again!

    Regarding tip #3 for Blepharitis; my Opthamologist recommended shampooing my eyes along the upper and lower eyelashes with baby shampoo 1x A.M. & 1x before bed, I found it works great! Using 1 drop of shampoo on a moistened pad & then “rinse” by using a 2nd pad with only water. Pat dry then put drops in. I use no more tears by Johnson &Johnson for it no irritating, gentleness.👍

    You have helped me more than my eye surgeon has!!!! I've had dry eyes since my two cataract surgeries. The first one was on June 9, 2021 and July 21, 2021. I've been miserable ever since. He has done some YAG laser on both eyes but they are still dry. I wear either sunglasses or blue blockers at all times, inside and outside. (I sent you this message on another video of yours but not as thorough.) I had punctal plugs put in. I think they worked a little but I still wear the glasses. I put PF Systane in about 3 times a day. They're more annoying than anything. He never mentioned Omega 3's, Moisture Chambers, or the specific eye compresses you have mentioned. His assistant told me to wet a rag and put it in the microwave and place on my eyes twice a day. He also told me to gently massage my eyelides afterwards. Those instructions don't seem to be working much either. 😞 I appreciate all your information and I feel like I have some hope. Oh, and he suggested I see another doctor in his office regarding LipiFlow. You didn't mention that at all. What are your thoughts?

    It would be costly for the light treatments we both need.

    Preservative free eye drops that she recommends Theazol 3%. Really helps!

      @@DoctorEyeHealth Have you used the laser treatments? I told my dermatologist and the technician has added that to my skin treatment. It works great but only on the lower glands. I guess it kills the mites. When I have a blephex treatment, the lower lids are almost clear of debris. Your videos are really helpful. I've shared them with friends who have the same problems. I'm going to try the ilux next.

    Hello, thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I chemically burned my eye lids with essential oils (mostly peppermint and winter green blend). I fell asleep with them on my face. My symptoms are swollen lids, light sensitive, dry eyes. Dr said no permanent damage but it would take months to fully heal. I am on a tapered treatment of steriods for 3 weeks( week 1 3drops daily, week 2 two drops daily, week 3 1 drop daily). I am also taking omega supplements. What do you think of the steriod treatment? What do you think of green tea as a treatment (either topically or orally)? Anything else you would recommend for this injury? Help :)
