    About Dry Eye

    The normal tear film, which not only coats the surface of the eye, but also the inner lining of the upper and lower eyelids, is a complex balanced solution of saltwater, mucous and lipid (fatty molecule). These three components not only provide lubrication to the eye, but they have been elegantly designed by nature to remain on the eye between blinking without falling off onto the cheeks.

    What Causes Dry Eye Symptoms?

    Contrary to popular belief, dry eye is not always caused by a deficiency of saltwater tears. In some cases, there is poor function of the Meibomian glands. Or the surface conjunctival tissue may produce inadequate mucin. Finally, there can be structural problems of the eyelids that allow tears to evaporate too quickly or not to spread evenly.

    Dry Eye is usually found in healthy people, although diseases such as Sjogren's Syndrome, Rheumatoid arthritis and Sarcoid can be causative. Following Lasik, many patients report dry eye symptoms for longer than the typical two month post-operative period. This may be due to severing the sensory corneal nerves during the procedure.
