Understanding dry eye will help you determine the best treatment option. Dry eye occurs when a person doesn`t have enough quality tears to lubricate and nourish the eye. Tears reduce eye infections, wash away foreign matter, and keep the eye`s surface smooth and clear. People with dry eyes either do not produce enough tears or their tears are poor quality. It`s a common and often chronic problem, especially in older adults.

Myopia, more commonly known as nearsightedness, is a condition where individuals are able to see objects that are close to them but may have difficulty distinguishing things at a distance, such as road signs or leaves on a tree. These individuals often squint at objects that are further away to try and help bring them into focus.
