Dry Eyes

Does anybody suffer with dry eyes? Do you use an eye drop?

The opthamologist gave me a sample (Systane Lubricant Eye Drops) yesterday and told me I should buy some sort of Artificial Tears.

I've not had that problem Sandy. Hopefully someone here can recommend something that will help.

only when my allergies act up, like today, my eyes get dry, puffed and ichy.
Plus my working in a dust pit don't help me either.. Do you have allergies?

I only have some tree and weed allergies (April and October) and I take Claritin and Flonase for that.

I'm having trouble with dry eyes too. I used to wear contacts but with my eyes being so dry I can't even put them in any more. I've used all kinds of eye drops and even found an eye gel that I like at Wal-mart. It was pretty pricey but it's what I like the best. The eye doctor has me on Restasis but it's really expensive to be on, even though I only use it every other day. I need to go back to the eye doctor because I'm due for an appointment. I've started taking vitamin a because I read that it will help with eye dryness but so far I can't tell anything. If you find a product that helps you I'd appreciate hearing about it. Good luck!!
