Dry eyes are one of the most common eye complaints I see in clinic — but did you know we can actually measure how salty your tears are?
In this video, I answer your top questions about dry eye disease, including how doctors check tear salt levels (osmolarity testing), what causes that gritty feeling, and what treatments can actually help.
Managing dry eyes often means combining multiple approaches — from artificial tears, eyelid cleansers, and omega-3 supplements, to prescription medications and in-office procedures. Thankfully, most people find relief with consistency and care!
I also mention some great options from @theratears, who make high-quality artificial tears, eyelid cleansers, and omega-3 supplements trusted by eye doctors.
