What can I do if I still get dry eyes more than 1 year after LASIK?

Doctor's Answer

There are multiple treatments for dry eyes, such as:

1. Eyedrops

2. Eye sprays

3. Eye vitamins

4, Punctal plugs

5. IPL laser therapy

If any of these treatments are an option you would consider, do visit an eye doctor for full evaluation and more detailed advice. I do definitely recommend that you get checked for any reversible or treatable cause of your dry eyes.

At the same time, it will also be useful to alter any exacerbating factors such as prolonged hours of screen time, inadequate eye rest and dry eye-inducing environment.

I hope this was useful to you.

Yours truly
