Causes and Treatment 
What is Dry eye 
Dry eyes or dry eyse syynndrodmre ois am coendi ti?on in which the eyes do not 
produce enough tears. It is one of the major reasons people 
visit an eye doctor.
Your eyes may also be prone to bacterial infections, or the surface of 
your eyes may become inflamed, causing scarring on your cornea.
Sometimes, dry eyes create too many tears. This confusing condition 
is called reflex tearing. It happens because the lack of moisture 
irritates your eye. It sends a distress signal through your nervous 
system for more lubrication. Your body sends a flood of tears to try to 
make up for the dryness. It’s a lot like what happens when you get 
sand in your eye and it runs. But these tears are mostly water, so they 
don’t act like normal tears. They can wash debris away, but they can’t 
coat your eye’s surface.
