Dry eye

Common questions

Do blue light glasses prevent eye strain?

There is no strong evidence that blue light from screens damages the eyes or that blue-filter lenses reduce strain. Breaks and blinking help more.

Can blepharitis be cured?

It is usually a long-term condition, but daily lid care keeps it well controlled.

Are lubricating drops safe for regular use?

Generally yes. Preservative-free drops are best if you use them more than a few times a day.
