About What You Must Know About Dry Eye: How To

Review "In What You Must Know About Dry Eye, optometrist Jeffrey Anshel presents the reasons tears may falter―illness, computers and hormones are all possible culprits―before proving ways to combat this problem, including medical treatments, dietary changes and supplementation." (ENERGY TIMES Magazine)“Fascinating facts . . . [this book] is an eye-opening look at a condition that affects quality of life, especially for people over 40.” (Karen Springen Booklist (ALA)) Product Description While the condition known as dry eye may sound like a minor problem, it can cause tremendous discomfort, even pain. Worse, this disorder can lead to eye fatigue, blurred vision, and difficulty driving, especially at night. In a healthy eye, lubricating tears continuously bathe the cornea―the dome-shaped outer surface of the eye. These tears provide a layer of liquid protection from the environment while nourishing the cells, keeping the eyes comfortable, and helping the eyes function properly. But when tears are not of adequate quality or quantity, dry eye disease occurs.Written by optometrist Jeffrey Anshel, What You Must Know About Dry Eye is divided into two parts. Part One begins by explaining the anatomy of the eye and how it works. It then focuses on dry eye―what the condition is, what causes it, how it impacts vision, and how it is diagnosed. In Part Two, this book examines a full range of treatments. First, it looks at conventional therapies, from over-the-counter artificial tears to prescription drugs. It then guides the reader in using smart nutrition and a proven supplement plan to relieve dry eye while making the eyes healthier, more comfortable, and able to see more clearly.If you are one of the millions of people who suffer from dry eye, you know that this disorder can affect both your feeling of well-being and your ability to function in the world. What You Must Know AboutDryEye tells you how to relieve this common condition while improving and safeguarding your vision. About the Author Jeffrey R.
