Causes of Dry Eyes

Why Do Dry Eyes Happen?

From spending hours on screens to living in dry or windy climates, many daily habits and conditions can contribute to dry eyes. Understanding these triggers is the first step to finding relief.

Screen Time Overload

Spending long hours on digital devices reduces the number of times we blink, which is essential for keeping our eyes hydrated. This lack of blinking causes tears to evaporate quickly, leading to dryness and discomfort.

Aging and Hormonal Changes

As we age, our body naturally produces fewer tears. Hormonal changes, particularly during menopause, can also reduce tear production, increasing the likelihood of dry, irritated eyes.

Environmental Factors

Dry air from heating, air conditioning, or windy climates can strip moisture from your eyes. These environmental conditions accelerate tear evaporation, making it harder for your eyes to stay lubricated.

The Impact of Dry Eyes

Dry eyes aren’t just an inconvenience—they can significantly affect your daily life if left untreated. Beyond the constant discomfort of dryness, irritation, and redness, dry eyes can make it harder to focus on work, enjoy hobbies like reading, or even get a good night’s sleep. Over time, the lack of proper lubrication can lead to more serious issues, including damage to the surface of the eye and a higher risk of infections. Addressing dry eyes early not only relieves symptoms but also protects your long-term eye health and overall quality of life.
