Dry Eye is a common side effect of LASIK vision correction, often caused by a decrease in tear production due to the reduced sensitivity of corneal nerves post-surgery. This can lead to insufficient lubrication and protection for the eyes, resulting in irritation. While Dry Eye is typically temporary after LASIK, some patients may experience symptoms for an extended period. Using lubricating eye-drops can provide relief from discomfort.

Clean, healthy air is a key component to clear vision. However, the connection between air quality and eye health is often overlooked. Dirty, musty, hazy air leads to eye and respiratory problems. Polluted air irritates your eyes, causing short-term and long-term effects.
