Dry Eyes Medication

Dry eyes occur when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when tears evaporate too quickly. This condition can cause discomfort, irritation, and blurred vision. Medications, such as artificial tears, anti-inflammatory drops, or prescription treatments, can help alleviate symptoms by providing moisture or addressing underlying causes of dryness.
