Chronic eye irritation is a significant problem for many patients

Ocular irritation is one of the most frequent complaints seen at an ophthalmologists office.  As we approach the fall season many of these will be due to allergy.  However, many of these complaints are due to dry eyes.  Some of the common factors associated with dry eyes are arrid climates, contact lens use, aging, menopause, and ocular lid inflammation known as blepharitis.
