What is Dry Eye?

Dry eye syndrome is a chronic and often progressive condition that afflicts one in four Canadians. There are several causes for this condition and depending on its cause and severity, it may not be completely curable.

In most cases though, the key is often the successful management of dry eye, and this usually results in noticeably greater eye comfort, fewer dry eye symptoms, and sometimes sharper vision as well.
