Definition of Dry Eye
Tears help your eyes to stay moist, healthy and comfortable. Dry eye (or Dry Eye Syndrome) is an eye condition that affects the quantity and quality of tears, causing your eyes to feel dry and irritated.
Studies have shown that roughly 3 million women over the age of 50 suffer from dry eye, but it can affect men and women of any age. Often confused with allergies, dry eye frequently goes undiagnosed and can lead to long-term complications if untreated. Dry eye may also be a sign of other health or eye issues.
Unfortunately, there is no cure for dry eye, but there are a variety of treatments that can help soothe its symptoms. SYSTANE® Lubricant Eye Drops is clinically proven to reduce both the signs (what the eye doctor can measure) and symptoms (what you feel and experience) of dry eye, offering dry eye sufferers immediate and lasting relief.
