Digital Device Usage: With the increasing reliance on digital devices in Mumbai, prolonged screen time can contribute to dry eyes due to decreased blinking and increased evaporation of tears. 3. Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions such as autoimmune diseases, hormonal changes, and aging can contribute to Dry Eye Syndrome.

Common symptoms include: Persistent dryness and irritation in the eyes Redness and inflammation Sensitivity to light Blurred vision Feeling of grittiness or foreign body sensation in the eyes

Management Strategies Lifestyle ModificationsHydration:Maintaining adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water can help in improving tear production and reducing dryness.Blinking Exercises:Encouraging frequent blinking, especially during prolonged screen time, can help in spreading tears evenly across the ocular surface.

  7. Medical Interventions Artificial Tears: Lubricating eye drops can provide temporary relief from dry eye symptoms by supplementing natural tear production. Prescription Medications: In some cases, prescription eye drops or ointments may be recommended by a healthcare professional to manage underlying causes of Dry Eye Syndrome. Advanced Treatments: Advanced treatments such as punctal plugs, which help in retaining tears on the ocular surface, or in severe cases, surgical interventions may be considered.
