It’s natural for people to take their eyesight for granted until something goes wrong and medical treatment is required.

If you or a loved one has been suffering from this malady, you’ll want to learn about dry eye treatments in Midland and Odessa that we provide here at Urias Eyecare before making your appointment.

Causes of Dry Eye

Dry eye happens when the eyes are not producing enough tears to provide lubrication as well as nourishment for your eyes. We all need tears to have healthy eyes. Each time you blink, the motion spreads this lubrication over the surface of your eye (the cornea) to wash away foreign particles such as bits of dust. This regular lubrication is essential for maintaining ocular health.

There is a range of causes of dry eye, including:

  • The amount of tears being produced is insufficient: This may be caused naturally as people age. Exposure to a dry and windy climate can also cause this ailment. In some cases, the optometrist may determine that a medication is causing your eyes to dry up.
  • Quality of the tears is not ideal: The proper balance of mucous, oil, and water may be out of range, leading to poorer quality tears that lead to dry eye.
  • Medical conditions: Illnesses such as thyroid disorders, diabetes, and arthritis can lead to dry eye.
