I'm 25 years old and I think I have dry
eyes. It started recently like 2 weeks
ago when I woke up in the middle of one
night and my eyes were dry like a rock.
I went to cvs at 4 am to get eye drops.
Ever since then, I had to keep putting eye
drops in my eyes. I have spent a lot for
the past two weeks on eye drops: systain,
refresh endura, tear naturale, thera
tears, genteal gel for severe dry eyes,
and genteal for moderate eyes. None of
them really helped me except for the tear
naturale ointment at night. I will feel
burning and my eyes will be red. I went
to see eye doctor who prescribe me with
the new types of contact lens, acuvue
advance with hydraclear. My eyes
actually feel ok during the contact lens
wear, I mean, no burning feeling.
However, after few hours, my eyes will
become so red. When I wear glasses, I
feel fine at home. However, my eyes will
be burning so bad at work. I wonder if
it's because of the computer use but I
have constantly forced myself to blink if
I rememeber it. My eyes at work are also
red though I wear glasses. I just want
to know if anyone experience the same
symptom as me? I'm so depressed over
this and it really affect how I live my
life. Please help.
