Dry eye a huge issue

OUR screens have become so addictive doctors have opened a new clinic in Sydney specifically to treat the irreversible damage it does to our vision.

Dry eye syndrome used to be suffered exclusively by elderly people but is now common in people in their 20s due to out reliance on screens.

Symptoms of dry eye include blurred vision, discharge, redness and eyes which are easily fatigued.

The syndrome is progressive, and if left undiagnosed it can get progressively uncomfortable and possibly impair vision.
