Dry Eye Syndrome (DES) or Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca affects millions of people, who suffer from sandy, gritty, irritated or burning eyes every day – symptoms that get worse as the day goes on, and can be particularly acute in cold, windy conditions.
The problem of “dry eye” is a very common condition that occurs if you don’t have either enough tears, or the correct composition of tears, on the surface of your eyes to lubricate the eyes and keep them comfortable.
Dry eye gets more common with age and many older people of both sexes suffer from it. The condition affects two-to-three times more women than men.
