As the leaves change colours and the crisp autumn air sets in, many of us look forward to cosying up with warm drinks and enjoying the season’s festivities. However, the dry air can bring discomfort and irritation to contact lens wearers.
In this blog post, we’ll share essential tips on managing dry eyes during autumn. So you can enjoy the season with clear vision and confidence.
Essential Tips for Managing Dry Eyes During Autumn:
1. Hydrate from the Inside Out: Drink plenty of water to keep your body and eyes hydrated. Aim for at least 8-10 glasses of water a day.
2. Use Artificial Tears: Over-the-counter artificial tears can help lubricate your eyes and relieve dryness. Look for preservative-free options to avoid irritating your eyes further.
3. Adjust Your Environment: Use a humidifier to add moisture to the air, especially in dry spaces like your home or office.
4. Blink Regularly: When working on digital devices, consciously blink regularly to prevent dryness.
5. Clean and Replace Your Lenses: Properly clean and replace your contact lenses as directed to prevent irritation and infection.
6. Consider Eye Drops with Omega-3: Omega-3 fatty acids can help reduce inflammation and promote healthy tears.
7. Schedule Regular Eye Exams: Visit Oakes Opticians for regular check-ups to monitor your eye health and address concerns.
