At Wesbrook Eyecare Optometry, we understand how frustrating and disruptive dry eye can be. This common condition affects millions of people worldwide, and its impact can extend far beyond the eyes, disrupting daily life. In this blog, we’ll explore what dry eye is, its symptoms, the potential causes, and the treatment options available to help manage it.

Due to COVID-19, people have been spending more time online and on digital devices as they cannot meet face to face. While digital technology has proved useful, it has also impacted the eye health of several individuals due to long hours of screen time amid the work-from-home setup, school from home, and the growing addiction to social media. On account of this, the experts at Wesbrook Eyecare Optometry want to caution you about the changes your eyes will go through during the pandemic and why COVID-19 should not be a reason for postponing checkups and eye surgeries.
