The dry eye is a condition in which there is a consistant lack of moisture in the eye. The cornea is not moisturised enough, and this in turn causes discomfort. The so-called “dry eye” is a common problem and affects 5–35% of the population during their lifetime.
Common complaints:
tingling
pain
tears
so-called „glowing eyes”
sensitivity to light – particularly disturbed by daylight bulbs
fluctuations in visual acuity (especially when reading)
redness
eye strain
incapacity to work
