Dry Eyes

by tammygirl33, Mar 24, 2008 09:21AM

I have had Lasik 5 days ago. My eyes are so dry and scratchy that it is driving me crazy! The dryness decreases my ability to see. I have been putting drops into my eyes constantly, but it does not seem to help. Any suggestions?

Tammy I am not a doctor but i got great dry eye relief for my contact lenses using a product called Fortifeye Dry Eye therapy two times a day. I have read up a lot on this type of nutrition for dry eyes and from what i can gather the combination of the fish oil , GLA, sesame and curcumin seem to work synergistically together. All I know is i have worn every contact lens on the market and they all tended to dry out toward the end of the day, riding motocross or working on computer until i started taking the fortifeye dry eye therapy.
