What Causes Dry Eye?
Dry eye occurs when tears evaporate too quickly or the eyes do not produce sufficient tears.
This condition can be caused by a variety of factors.
- Hormonal changes
- Certain medications
- Environmental conditions
- Health conditions
(i.e. autoimmune disease)
- Old age (common in people over 50)
- Gender (women are affected by dry eye more than men)
Identifying the root cause of dry eye is critical as it enables your eye doctor to provide you with an effective treatment plan.
