Dry eye therapy begins with identifying whether the dryness is due to quick evaporation of your tear layer or whether you’re not producing enough tears. Treatment solutions include a professional recommendation of an artificial tears solution that is best for you, convenient in-office insertion of punctal plugs to slow the drainage of tears, Schirmer’s Test for the diagnosis of aqueous-deficient dry eye, the prescribing of moisture-releasing hot compresses such as Bruder Masks, and if necessary, the prescribing of auto-immune suppressing drops.
