What is dry eye disease

  • Naturally, your eyes produce tears to keep your eyes lubricated. Dry eye occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough good quality tears to keep your eyes moist. Additionally, you can develop dry eye if your tears evaporate too quickly. 

  • Tears have a mucous layer against the cornea, followed by an aqueous layer, the bulk, and the oily layer that keeps the tear from evaporating too quickly. Inadequate layers will lead to dry eye symptoms.
