The herb “Eyebright” is excellent for eyes, but I don’t know if it is excellent for dry eye. You can buy eye lubricants at the pharmacy, but of course it is probably not “alternative”. Question at your local health food shop, they would know.
Yes. The distil water and eye rest.
Similsan is a homeopathic company who makes an eye drop called “Dry Eye Relief”. Health food stores carry the whole line.
The first thing you have to clear up is why you have this problem in the first place. There are a number of causes for dry eyes:
* an imbalance in the tear-flow system of the eye
* drying out of the tear film due to dry air made by air conditioning, heat, or other environmental conditions.
* The natural aging process, especially during menopause
* Side effects of using certain medications
* Diseases that affect the ability to make tears, such as Sjogren’s syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis and collagen vascular diseases.
* Structural problems with the eyes that don’t allow them to close properly
* a problem with the tear ducts
A partial list of medications that can cause this problem are:
Diuretics, drugs commonly used to treat high blood pressure
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors used to treat high blood pressure
Antihistamines and decongestants
Sleeping pills
Birth control pills
Certain antidepressants
Isotretinoin-type drugs for treatment of acne
Opiate-based pain relievers, such as morphine
Once you find out what is causing the problem, then you will be able to treat it much more effectively.
