Thanks i had a serious head injury and ive got dry eyes and using Refresh Optive and Liquidgel and it still dry
Thanks I feel better after watching this video and i will worry less and relax more as everything heals
Do you know a moisturizer I can use around my eyes that will not irritate my eyes and ok for contact lenses. Castor oil at night is the Only thing I can use … so far 🙏
Excellent informative video. Looking forward to the next installation. Thank you
Thanks for watching! I appreciate you, Bonnie!
@@DrRupaWong, what about sunscreen? Can sunscreen irritate the eyes and make dry eyes worse if you use sunscreen on your face, and it somehow irritates the eyes? I find that my eyes feel irritated and dry when I use sunscreen, which is daily in the summer.
Yes, very very helpful, fans, I must watch that, plus, keep the dust away.. I live in an old building, which does not help ! Thank you, vitamins, I will start checking out as well ! Thank you Dr Wong …
Thank you, Jean! I'm glad this helped.
Thank you for your excellent videos. We found this very helpful and look forward to the next segment you do on intervention for dry eyes.
I'm so glad this helped! I appreciate you!
Here's another one, actually from my cornea specialist. During the warmer months, avoid sleeping close to an open window. The reason for this is that a considerable percentage of dry eye results from allergies (I happen to be an example). When you sleep close to an open window, environmental allergens can come in and cause inflammation that can reduce your tear production, according to my doctor. I had terrible dry eye and was tested for allergies, then got immunotherapy (under the tongue, not injections). After about a year, my dry eye dramatically resolved and now hardly have any issues now for last 7 years. If you have difficult to treat dry eye, and think you have allergies of some sort, get tested for allergies by an allergist.
I just found your channel. I am happy to have found you. Because I am considering buying lash serum named GrandeLash MD.
Your channel is educational and informative. I love beauty products and more. I am a Cosmetologist by trade and Yoga instructor on the side.

Hey doc,
I have big eye.. I heard bigger eye cause more dryness is it true love your videos.
Very informative video - thank you! I am waiting on a dry eye formulation from TheraTears but I see it doesn't list GLA in the ingredients. Would you suggest I get an additional GLA supplement? If so, just take it as instructed on packaging along with the TheraTears? Should I be looking for a specific dose? Thanks in Advance!
Do you get tears while crying or cutting onion?
Thank u for the video..could you tell me how many times to do hot compress and omega- 3 doesn't suit me so please another supplement
Dr. Berg recommended cod liver oil because it has 3 components Vitamin A, Vitamin D and Omega 3
Thank you doctor 🙏🏻

@@DrRupaWong yes it has somewhat. I've had the condition for too long thoough.
@@liontribe555Do you get tears while crying or cutting onion?
@@medhikasingh6327 apparently it's not the water from crying but the oil glands that create the lubrication, and if those glands get clogged up the oil drys up for good. I make it a habit now to squeeze/hard blink my eyes throughout the day to get the oil out of the oil ducts, and that has helped tremendously.
@@liontribe555 what if there are no normal tears?
HOPE U CAN ANSWER
Hello!
I drink loads of water and always get dry eyes my sodium levels aren’t that high. Eyes are very tricky to understand. I think sleep deprivation does play a part with eye Issues.
It really can be hard to find the underlying issue. Sleep deprivation is harmful in so many areas to the body. Please try and get some rest. Thank you so much for being here!
Do you get tears while crying or cutting onion?
@Medhika Singh yes
Just was seen today at dry eye clinic, and they decided that my myoblin eye glands are barely working. So I'm stuck.
You don't mention myobiome gland disfunction. When there aren't enough oils from oil ducts coating the eyes it results in dry eyes. It is vital to address the root cause.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Susan!
agreed.. I have the same
She did address it
This is fascinating! I struggle with dry eye and I've had people recommend a compress but I didn't understand how it would help. Thanks to you , now I get it! Thanks for all of the great tips!
Thank you, Ashley! Glad to help.

What Causes Dry Eyes? | Eye Doctor Explains - ua-cam.com/video/KKAXxHiye40/v-deo.html
I'm in a dry eye clinic. Only help beyond warm eye compresses was expensive eye drops. So I'm still using tears naturally, and warm compresses. Dry eye clinic suggests expensive eye compresses, and expensive drops. But admit nothing can be done.
Is that EPA/DHA?
Was prescribed eye drops …I went to pick up even though it was a generic I had to leave it because it was $500.00. It’s so bad the eye dr. said my eye is dry only after 2 seconds after blinking when a normality it would be 10. I make to much to get it free or a discount but not enough to cover the cost unless I want to live under a bridge. Pretty sad for someone who worked for the government since the age of nineteen.
I'm so sorry. I hope you can find something else that helps a little bit. Thank you for being here. I appreciate you!
What's the name of the dry eye drops? So curious to read about it. Sorry for your treatment difficulty. I haven't had an eye exam in over 7 years. Right now my dry eye is acting up something terrible.
Now I can't even open my glued shut eyes in the morning for a couple seconds or more.
@ White Heart Contact the manufacturer directly. You should be given a discount card to use instead of using your insurance company or the manufacturer should have a special program for people no matter of their income level. The manufacturer doesn't want you to use any other product but theirs. Use that to your advantage. Good luck.
White heart I found your story amazing do you live in the USA that is very pricy we get those drops here in Australia for I think $20 and $5 if on a pension good luck I also have dry eyes it’s awful.
@M49 If he lives in the US, he probably has to meet a deductible before the insurance company will pay. We, in the US pay astronomical prices for medications as we pay for all of the research and development. We are not allowed to get medications from other countries legally.
Can you tell us the every day names of the Omega 3 suppliments. I have NO idea what to look for. Fish oil? What kind of fish oil.

I just finished listening to your comments on dry eyes but as a matter of fact I have dry eyes and I don't produce any saliva I've had blood test done I've gone through 3 doctors and specialist and nobody can give me the right answer what do you suggest my body is very itchy I drink tons of water I drink the vitamins that you spoke about I do the humidifier and I still feel awful day and night please help thank you

Wow ! Wow ! Thank you Dr. Rupa for this detailed explanation - I am now on the road to recovery thanks to your counsel !
Glad it was helpful! Let me know what works for you. Thank you for being here.
Kindly make an video on Use of PRP eye drops in dry eye or other inflammatory eye conditions.
I was diagnosed as a case of Trachoma last year n concretions were removed from both eyes. With excessive watering eyes.
I had taken Hypomellise, XLHA, RESTASIS with moxi LP eye drops, oral doxycycline for 3 months but nothing worked. Again I'm having concretions & again removed but I'm fed up from this. Treating dr saying me this is because of inflammatory condition.
Euphrasia eye drops and allium cepa, rhus toxico (homeopathy medicine) only worked and decreased the watery discharge. I also had seasonal allergic conjunctivitis since childhood.
Kindly suggest the best dr Rupa ji.

There is no mention of Demodex Mites mostly active at night. Also using your own blood serum to create your own tears. Yes, water is good, omega 3, cool mist humidifier,
Thank you for your feedback, Barbara. I appreciate you being here!
How about the food that we get from the grocery store. By the time it goes from the garden to you is dried out. Food does not stay in the Sun and get the vitamins in it. So what's your getting is food with no vitamins in it. Food stay in transit too much. And the chemicals in the air is so bad. Look at Hawaii and food you get from the store is been intrinsic from the boxcar coming to you and it's dried out.
Thanks a lot for very good information. Because I m having same problem. I m from Mumbai India

I was diagnosed 6 months ago with MGD. My eyes feel okay most of the day and then starting at about 6PM they get very dry. I wake up every morning with my eyeball stuck to my eyelid and it's been awful. The "lifetime" diagnosis devastated me. I'm now taking Algae based Omega's, Natural Vit. C, AREDS supplement for eyes, Maqui powder 1/2 tsp a day, Spirulina, Vit. D, zinc.. and a few other supplements. I'm doing warm compresses at night and manual expression as well as Systane Complete PF drops, daily contacts no more than 3-4 hours a day or no contacts at all. I'm doing everything I can to avoid a lifetime of medicated eye drops such as Restasis. My doctor told me that Restasis has no side effects... but it is a medication and I"ve read that it can affect kidney function. Do you have any recommendation for anything else that I can do? Is this truly a lifetime of these symptoms or can it improve or go away?

Thank you so much for the interesting info ! My eye doctor told me I have dry eye. I have tried the preservative free, omega-3 eyedrops. But they burn my eyes really bad. Are there any dry eye eyedrops that you would recommend? When I tried to take the supplements, you mentioned, they upset my stomach really badly. Also, I cried today and my eyes are still puffy. Nearly 12 hours later. I cried at 5 AM and it is now 4 PM. I can tell that these eyebags are going to stick around. I have tried Massage. I have tried everything. Please help me figure out how to get rid of these horrible, puffy eye bags because they make me feel so tired.I try not to cry. I don’t cry often. But when I do, the eyebags last for days. Sometimes months.

@@DrRupaWong lately though and maybe you may have reccomendation. I've been taking astronomical amounts of lumbrokinase and serrapeptase, and the dry eyes still seem to occur in the morning. So I've been opting for ovidine eye drops. And by large doses I mean like 120,000 units times 5 in the morning. 5 in the morning and 5 in the evening. I used to get dizzy but that's disapated almost entirely. It's just the dry eyes in the morning that's been a bit hard to overcome. I might try vitamin C as an odd remedy because when I brush my teeth it bleeds a bit. I couldnt find studies on the enzymes and vitamin c but i think theres a correlation. This past year of doing extreme doses my workouts are better, my blood pressure is that of a teenager, and a fee tiny scars on my hands have disappeared for the first time. If I stop supplementation within a few days the dry eyes completely turn back to normal. Any thoughts on such a convoluted subject?
Thank you
Of course! I'm so glad this was helpful. If there is anything else you would like to see, let me know!

Tx doc . . .outstanding info yet again.
Dry eye content due to head injury - trauma would be interesting too, esp.
as so many people do not know that the head traumas that many get in
sports, esp. as a youth then can cause the whole dry eye issues.
Also I learned that if people have had conjunctivitis infection(s), especially
foreign country tropical strains either bacterial or viral, that this very often shows
itself later in one's years and proves to be chronic conjunctival injection.
My eye surgeon in Canada is both US and Canada certified so I feel lucky to have found her.
Have learned so much and wish all people had access to all these facts.
Tx again for all your 'shares.'
I will add that topic to my suggestions list. Thank you! I am glad that you found a surgeon you trust. That can be such a relief.

Actually I'm a forty-three-year-old gentleman and I'm having a dry eye situation as of now I get burning and hazy vision it always tends to act up at night but then clear up in the day I wonder if artificial tears help.
Yes they are cheap and work when used often. Try the nightly warm compresses to the upper eyes to stimulate the myeoblin glands that oils your eyes.
The hot compress recommendation works well for me. Thanks for the info, you've managed to make an interesting video of a rather dry topic 🙂...
One of our friends suggested soaking chia seeds in water for about 2 hours and gulping that mix down as a home remedy for dry eyes. Is that one you've heard of? And is that a popular or effective remedy?
