DRY EYE SUPPLEMENTS

ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM DRY EYE?

It’s been estimated that more than 25 million Americans suffer from dry eye, which can affect every part of their lives. The stinging and burning is a constant irritant as eye fatigue and blurring can cause dry eyes sufferers to become significantly less productive in their normal daily tasks. There, however, is hope for relief without having to worry about surgical procedures. In fact, studies have shown that dry eye can be effectively treated through the use of special supplements that do not require extensive procedure or surgery. At Lasik of Nevada, we are dedicated to treating our Lasik patients from beginning to end, including those who experience post-Lasik dry eye. We offer a comprehensive approach to dry eyes so that, together, you and your dry eye specialist can determine which option will be most beneficial for your personal situation.

TREATING DRY EYE WITH SUPPLEMENTS

The number of supplemental remedies for dry eye are numerous and constantly increasing. Science and treatment has shown that dry eye can be dealt with through the supplement of Omega-3 fatty acids. These supplements, usually taken orally, are extremely effective for dry eye and can be found in a form that does not have any fishy aftertaste. For minor and even severe cases of dry eye, Omega-3 fatty acids are an all-around desirable supplement to have on hand at all times and can be beneficial to more than just your dry eyes. While Omega-3 fatty acids are available over the counter, the purified form and the specific dosage required to effectively treat post-Lasik dry eye can only be found through a dry eye doctor. If you believe that you are suffering from dry eye and would like to learn more about how it can be treated through the use of supplements, contact Lasik of Nevada today and request to speak with one of our dry eye specialists.
