  1. Suffering from severe chronic dry eye can be debilitating, mentally as well as physically. Do you see a dry eye specialist? Ifyou haven’t yet and are able to do so, a doctor that deals with severe cases of chronic dry eye might be able to help you. I hope you find a good doctor and an effective treatment plan.

      1. Yes. I went many hospital & doctors in india. I used to do restasis last 8 months and other medicine also . Omega 3 , systane ,trehalube , oinments etc but i feel no heal . I think my symptoms started when i was 13 . I realized 3 years ago .

        1. it must be very difficult when none of the treatments help. It can take a lot of trial and error to find the right treatment plan. I hope you can find the help you need. Sharon, Patient Leader
