Yellowtail Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Have you seen "Old Yeller"? Just kidding. Have you seen a doctor? If not, go to Rutnin Eye Hospital (or somesuch) and have them looked at. Pretty cheap. Might just bee all the dust of late... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connda Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I can recommend this. It also comes in a 0.3 solution also, but I haven't tried that. The one pictured is 200 THB in our Big-C pharmacy. The 0.3 solution is around 350 THB. I can recommend this. I use Natear which is basically saline solution (or just buy a big bottle of 0.9% saline and rinse your eyes first to get the grit out, let them dry out for 5 minutes of so, and then apply one or two drops of Hialid. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airbalance Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 So PM 2.5 definitely plays a part in this, but the eye drops you use also play a part. Some of the cheaper brands are not as sticky, The stickiest ones I found and use and find very good is Vislube and at nights I use vidisic gel sometimes. They work out great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosLobo Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) How do you know it's Dry Eye? There are a myriad of causes for watery eyes. And there also are a myriad of reasons and cures for dry eyes. Perhaps you need to give more information and location as well. Maybe Sheryl can recommend the names of ophthalmologists in your area. NevertheIess, I would suggest you see will need to see an ophthalmologist and not try any ad hoc cures or remedies.

3NUMBAS Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Can dry eyes be cured naturally? Consume a healthy diet including Omega 3. Omega-3 fatty acids, most commonly found in fish and flax seeds, have been proven to decrease symptoms of dry eyes. Omega-3 reduces inflammation in the eyes and enables increased tear quantity as well as quality!1 Jun 2020 just found this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosLobo Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) 15 hours ago, 3NUMBAS said: doc says its dry eye cos tear ducts not working ,then they over compensate I suggest that the overcompensation of the tear ducts is due to the common dry eye cause, Blepharitis ie inflammation of eye lid glands, also known as Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. This is a problem where the eye lid glands that normally secret lipid or oily lubrication are blocked. This can be caused by irritation from bacteria etc. Demonex a miniscule mite that infects the eyes lashes with feces etc, is common. Hygiene of eye lids is important , warm wet flannels, Q- tips etc. The wax that blocks the glands has a melting point of 42 C so warm water is key. Be careful not to burn your skin. An antibiotic can be helpful, I treated my Demodex with 0.01% hypochlorous acid and used a basic carmellose eye drop for lubrication. I found hyaluronic acid lubricants problematic as they caused me a lot of irritation and discomfort. I now only use Optimel, a Manuka eye drop once a day, its an antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and a lubricant. after 5 years of trying dry eye preparations. I am surprised your doctor did not give you more assistance with your dry eye. I found most GP's don't have a slit-lamp/ biomicroscope and are unable to fully diagnose eye problems. Consulting a competent ophthalmologist is key. Edited March 18, 2023 by LosLobo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
