Dry Eyes and Your Cornea

When your eyes don’t produce enough or the right kind of tears, your cornea can become dry and irritated. Dry eyes may lead to blurry vision, scratchy sensations, or even small corneal injuries.

Protecting your cornea:

• Use preservative-free artificial tears.
• Consider daily lid scrubs or IPL therapy if recommended.
• Take breaks from screens and stay hydrated.

Keeping your cornea moist ensures comfort, protects vision, and reduces the risk of long-term damage.
