You diet need not include artifical tears. Use the search feature and read the extensive posts about treat ment of dry eye.

Diet: fatty fish (salmon, tuna, cod, sardines, etc) several times/day. Consider one of the oral supplements for dry eyes such as TheaTears Dry eye formula, consider high quality fish oil supplments 3 or 4 pills day.
