Is your vision blurry, itchy, or stinging? You might be one of the millions of people experiencing dry eye syndrome. But don't worry, relief is closer than you think! At False Creek Eye Care Optometry, we want to help you understand the underlying causes of dry eye and guide you towards a comfortable, clear-sighted future.

So, what can cause dry eyes?

Several culprits can be at play:

  • Age: As we get older, our tear production naturally decreases.

  • Environment: Dry air, wind, and smoke can evaporate tears quickly.

  • Digital devices: Staring at screens for extended periods reduces blinking, essential for tear distribution.

  • Medical conditions: Autoimmune diseases and allergies can affect tear quality and quantity.

  • Medications: Some medications, like antihistamines, can contribute to dry eyes.
