Thanks to today's screen filled world, dry eye disease has spiked–
Based on the data from the National Health and Wellness Survey, 1 in 10 adults in the United States have been diagnosed with dry eye. Recent reports, however, show that as many as 7 in 10 adults have identifiable signs of dry eye disease. Like dental disease, a person must lose over 60% of their original tear function before they will exhibit any of the classic symptoms of dry eye disease. Classic symptoms include: itching, redness, grittiness, sandiness, burning, stinging, eye fatigue, light sensitivity, excessive mucous build-up, or watering of the eyes. Dry eye can lead to decreased clarity of vision and increased risk of eye infections. Dry eye also represents the number one reason people can no longer successfully wear their contact lenses.
