I had a real problem with dry eyes, especially after my first lasik surgery. It really felt like there was acid in my eyes. They were always red, so I looked like I was either drunk or drugged.
I went through every treatment available at that point, including little lubricating round things that you put into your bottom eyelid. It takes most of the day for them to melt so they were a relief. But, I stopped using them when one popped itself out of my right eye when I was talking to someone. She didn't say anything becsuse I think she wasn't sure she saw it. Things never pop out of people's eyes,.
Anyway - to make a long story short, I have been on twice/day restasis for abiout 9 years, It was an experimental drug at the time. It was originally made for dogs dry eyes, After using it for a while, your own eyes begin to make more tears.
It is expensive, but for me, it was a necessity. My eye doctor also likes
Systane for "as needed." He also wants me to take flax seed oil.
Good luck!
