  • Dry eyes can be truly debilitating, but the thought of lasers or machines to treat it might feel scary. Ophthalmologist, Dr. Rupa Wong (and a woman in her 40's so peak demographic to be a dry eye sufferer) explains ways to treat dry eyes naturally. #dryeyes #drrrupa #redeyes
    Dr. Wong answers the following:
    What causes dry eyes?
    Why do women get worse dry eyes?
    Are there natural treatments for dry eyes?
    Why do I tear when my eyes are dry?

    Here's another one, actually from my cornea specialist. During the warmer months, avoid sleeping close to an open window. The reason for this is that a considerable percentage of dry eye results from allergies (I happen to be an example). When you sleep close to an open window, environmental allergens can come in and cause inflammation that can reduce your tear production, according to my doctor. I had terrible dry eye and was tested for allergies, then got immunotherapy (under the tongue, not injections). After about a year, my dry eye dramatically resolved and now hardly have any issues now for last 7 years. If you have difficult to treat dry eye, and think you have allergies of some sort, get tested for allergies by an allergist.

      I'm in a dry eye clinic. Only help beyond warm eye compresses was expensive eye drops. So I'm still using tears naturally, and warm compresses. Dry eye clinic suggests expensive eye compresses, and expensive drops. But admit nothing can be done.

    Was prescribed eye drops …I went to pick up even though it was a generic I had to leave it because it was $500.00. It’s so bad the eye dr. said my eye is dry only after 2 seconds after blinking when a normality it would be 10. I make to much to get it free or a discount but not enough to cover the cost unless I want to live under a bridge. Pretty sad for someone who worked for the government since the age of nineteen.

    • @evabrechtel4321

      @ White Heart Contact the manufacturer directly. You should be given a discount card to use instead of using your insurance company or the manufacturer should have a special program for people no matter of their income level. The manufacturer doesn't want you to use any other product but theirs. Use that to your advantage. Good luck.

      @M49 If he lives in the US, he probably has to meet a deductible before the insurance company will pay. We, in the US pay astronomical prices for medications as we pay for all of the research and development. We are not allowed to get medications from other countries legally.

    Tx doc . . .outstanding info yet again.
    Dry eye content due to head injury - trauma would be interesting too, esp.
    as so many people do not know that the head traumas that many get in
    sports, esp. as a youth then can cause the whole dry eye issues.
    Also I learned that if people have had conjunctivitis infection(s), especially
    foreign country tropical strains either bacterial or viral, that this very often shows
    itself later in one's years and proves to be chronic conjunctival injection.
    My eye surgeon in Canada is both US and Canada certified so I feel lucky to have found her.
    Have learned so much and wish all people had access to all these facts.
    Tx again for all your 'shares.'

Are there any dry eye eyedrops that you would recommend? When I tried to take the supplements, you mentioned, they upset my stomach really badly. Also, I cried today and my eyes are still puffy. Nearly 12 hours later. I cried at 5 AM and it is now 4 PM. I can tell that these eyebags are going to stick around. I have tried Massage. I have tried everything.

    Kindly make an video on Use of PRP eye drops in dry eye or other inflammatory eye conditions.
    I was diagnosed as a case of Trachoma last year n concretions were removed from both eyes. With excessive watering eyes.
    I had taken Hypomellise, XLHA, RESTASIS with moxi LP eye drops, oral doxycycline for 3 months but nothing worked. Again I'm having concretions & again removed but I'm fed up from this. Treating dr saying me this is because of inflammatory condition.
    Euphrasia eye drops and allium cepa, rhus toxico (homeopathy medicine) only worked and decreased the watery discharge. I also had seasonal allergic conjunctivitis since childhood.
    Kindly suggest the best dr Rupa ji.

    If using plant based (flaxseed, chia seed, seaweed, edamame, walnuts, hemp seed, etc), is this sufficient for the dry eye needs bc you said, "not all omega-3s are the same..." ?

    I was diagnosed 6 months ago with MGD. My eyes feel okay most of the day and then starting at about 6PM they get very dry. I wake up every morning with my eyeball stuck to my eyelid and it's been awful. The "lifetime" diagnosis devastated me. I'm now taking Algae based Omega's, Natural Vit. C, AREDS supplement for eyes, Maqui powder 1/2 tsp a day, Spirulina, Vit. D, zinc.. and a few other supplements. I'm doing warm compresses at night and manual expression as well as Systane Complete PF drops, daily contacts no more than 3-4 hours a day or no contacts at all. I'm doing everything I can to avoid a lifetime of medicated eye drops such as Restasis. My doctor told me that Restasis has no side effects... but it is a medication and I"ve read that it can affect kidney function. Do you have any recommendation for anything else that I can do? Is this truly a lifetime of these symptoms or can it improve or go away?

      @@DrRupaWong lately though and maybe you may have reccomendation. I've been taking astronomical amounts of lumbrokinase and serrapeptase, and the dry eyes still seem to occur in the morning. So I've been opting for ovidine eye drops. And by large doses I mean like 120,000 units times 5 in the morning. 5 in the morning and 5 in the evening. I used to get dizzy but that's disapated almost entirely. It's just the dry eyes in the morning that's been a bit hard to overcome. I might try vitamin C as an odd remedy because when I brush my teeth it bleeds a bit. I couldnt find studies on the enzymes and vitamin c but i think theres a correlation. This past year of doing extreme doses my workouts are better, my blood pressure is that of a teenager, and a fee tiny scars on my hands have disappeared for the first time. If I stop supplementation within a few days the dry eyes completely turn back to normal. Any thoughts on such a convoluted subject?
