Learn all about the best natural dry eyes treatment! Here I share some research and guidance into what I consider to be the best natural treatment for dry eyes. Dry eye syndrome can be very complex and more omega-3 fatty acids in your diet can help prevent dry eye symptoms naturally. If you are struggling with your dry eyes, hopefully, this information will help you out.
As noted in the video, this content is not sponsored and I did not want to discuss any brands of omega 3 supplements specifically.

If you wish to dive down the rabbit hole of how omega 3s can help with dry eye, as I did, here is a list of referenced studies to help you.

Despite the research cited, there is some debate in the literature about omega 3s but a lot of that can be lost in the small nuances of the research being conducted.
Personally, at least on the topic of dry eye, I have found the majority of research supports omega 3s can help improve meibomian gland secretions, reduce tear film inflammation, stabilize the tear film and improve dry eye symptoms.
Note: Dry eye syndrome can be complicated by other forms of ocular surface disease and it is always best to consult with your local eye care professional if you are experiencing any eye pain or vision changes.

After studying and suffering from dry eye, I understood that dry eyes is not an eye disease,its disease related to inflammation which can be due to viral infections, immune related issues, or related to gut, work on underlying causes, any eye drop, warm compress etc are short term relief but nothing changes without dealing with underlying cause

@BajwaMohit Год назад

I completely agree with you

@steld4695 Год назад

Just wanted me make a comment about dry eyes…..I am a retired hospital nurse and have worn contact lenses for 56 years ( since I was fourteen) . I have found that when I am well hydrated with pure drinking water …..……have purposely hydrated at designated times during the day ( like taking a dose of life -saving medicine!) , I do not have dry eyes and my contact lenses remain comfortable from sunup to ( well past) sundown. In my decades of nursing, I never had to wear my glasses once…….as long as I was well hydrated!!! I discovered the importance of drinking water to make the eyes moist ! Just wanted to share!

@bauman11 10 месяцев назад

So I have only just after 27 years of having this that b12 and B6 helps and now your recommendation of omega3s The uk doctors and NHS are discussing they don’t help or even look at what autoimmune disease causes secondary inflammation.

I had dry eyes for years. I saw top ophthalmologist at the medical school and the doctor asked me if had sinus surgery because he noticed many patients with dry eyes had sinus surgery. I did have sinus surgery! I had tried 25 different eye drops, I did warm compresses, the tea tree eyelid wash and increased my Omega 3 still had dry eyes! We went to this health spa signed up for three day water fast on alkaline water to induce autophagy. I noticed my dry eyes went away! I talked to my ND about it later and he put me on an alkalizing formula that is mixed in water and told me to increase my water intake as well and that worked I was cured.

@DoctorEyeHealth 8 месяцев назад

woah! Amazing to hear that. I know there is a lot of talk about autophagy right now. Hope I can find some publications linking it to dry eye.

@griffinmathers929 Год назад

Many specialists, lots of medical debt, and all I'm told about losing 60% of my vision in one eye is "Well, go home and keep an eye on it". That felt extremely cruel. Eight months later, my eyes hurt constantly, & all I know is I have optic neuritis, but having a name does not help. Thank you for giving me something to try. I'm scared and felt hopeless. I've had high cholesterol for the first time in my life (odd for a vegan!), so I tried tuna, saw no change. Thank you for plant based options.

Excited to see the follow up video of your own experience taking omega-3! I'm not convinced omega-6 is per se inflammatory though. For sure saturated and trans fats are, but it really seems like eating unsaturated fats, including omega-6, in the context of an unprocessed diet is healthy. I think the main issue is not getting enough omega-3, independent of omega-6 intake. But I'd be interested to hear you elaborate on your arguments against omega-6 in another video...

@DoctorEyeHealth Год назад

Yes! Omega 6 is pretty interesting. A little more complicated I feel. There is at least one subtype of omega6 which is anti-inflammatory and may be beneficial. Agree on the sat/trans fat as being not the best.

Saturated fat is not inflammatory. It cannot be oxidized, unlike polyunsaturated fats which includes omega 3. My son learned that specifically in his 1st year biochemistry class in medical school. O-6 is not bad per se, the issue is vegetable oil that is refined because it is already oxidized.

A quick story of success! My little rescue dog (maybe about 4 yrs old or so) had suffered abuse and was near death from starvation when we got him 2 yrs ago. He gained weight and was very healthy until one month ago when suddenly he got those cataract blue toned eyes and started declining! It came out of nowhere. He was stumbling and very emotionally down due to abruptly not being his formerly active self. I was so upset, so shocked by this change. I suspect it was poor nutrition over the yrs before we got him and poor breeding. I read a book by Dr Pitcairn a holistic vet who said to put cod liver oil in his eyes along with salt water solution and add cod liver oil in his food. Well you wouldnt believe me if I told you how fantastic these methods have worked to bring our little dog into a state of health again! I am still blown away by the healing power of cod liver oil. Another interesting piece is that he always had issues with appetite - it came and went. Now that we put a teaspoon of cod liver oil in his food, he is so excited about eating. I know that with genetic eye issues these remedies dont alway work and maybe not forever, I am not sure. But what a wonderful turn of events using cod liver oil. I am currently adding it to my own routine to improve my health. Cant say enough about cod liver oil.

Nevertheless, taking curcumin, good brand, 3x a day will help quenching the destructive fire in your body. I know from my own experience.

@dorothygale5032 6 месяцев назад

I'd suggest a thick eye ointment that provides a barrier over your eyes while you sleep so that they don't stick in the morning. I use drops during the day but they are not enough to help at night so I use an ointment. It's fiddly to put in and makes eye sight blurry for a little bit after application but you'll be sleeping so that's fine. I don't wake up with sticking eye lids anymore. I get mine from Amazon as the one my optician suggested is apparently out of stock everywhere (lacri lube) so I had to find an alternative. I live in England. Good luck.

Also I would be happy if you make a video about freckles in the eyes, I have green/blue eyes but last years freckles started appearing on the iris of my left eye. An ophthalmologist told me I have an optic athrophy on that eye. Could it be related to the freckles?

PS...Algae oil supplements have extremely low levels of omega 3's per capsule, dose. You will have to take many more pills and spend a lot more to get it up to a good dosage, just saying.

Hiya! Thanks for the vid. Quick question about the best way to take Omega 3s supplements. What time of the day is better? Is it best practice to do it on an empty stocmach or with food? Cheers.

Dear Dr. Allen, I hope this comment finds you well. I've been struggling with severe dry eyes from about 10 years. After doing some research, I came across moisture chamber glasses from Ziena that seem to be highly recommended for managing dry eye symptoms. I'm seriously considering purchasing these glasses, but I'm a bit hesitant about buying glasses online. I was wondering if you could make a video on how to buy glasses online, specifically from Ziena . thanks in advance

Hi doctor, I had lasik done 5 months ago and still suffer from severely dry eye. I take omega 3s, use eye drops every hour-2 hours, do warm compresses, etc and I’m still dealing with this awful dry eye. It seems to be okay in the morning - mid afternoon and then the dryness really kicks in. Is this something I will have to live with forever? :((

@DoctorEyeHealth Год назад

Hey thanks for sharing, Alyson. That is really tough. As I have discussed in a previous livestream/video about dry eye after lasik, lasik can sever the corneal nerves and amplify dryness. It can also change the way the eye heals itself. I have helped many people improve their dryness post lasik, but it is something that may never be "cured". But hopefully with treatments, you and your doctors can get the symptoms under control and manage it at a level where you won't suffer. Are your doctors also putting you on any medications or recommending any procedures?

@_alysonh Год назад

@@DoctorEyeHealth my doctor has given me xiidra but I have not tried it yet. Everyone I talked to be fore I had my lasik said their dryness eventually went away (even after a year and a half) so I didn’t think the dryness would be that big of a deal. I never would’ve had lasik if I knew how awful this dryness is. I also deal with sinus problems and I’ve seen some people say taking Xiidra caused them sinus problems which makes me hesitant to try it.

I also have these moments of sharp pain in the corners of my eyes. Is that from dryness or should I be more concerned?

You say, "Don't use fish oil - use omega-3". My bottle says, "Wild Alaskan Fish oil: 4500mg total; 1400mg EPA, 900mg DHA". I've heard 6g/day is needed, sometimes. Never heard that omega-3 can be dangerous if taken over 6g, etc. I went to a dry eye clinic, and by the 2nd visit they said, "You should see a Dermatologist. Looks like you have rosacea on your eyelids". Like, what..?? And the Dermatologist will say, "Have you seen an Ophthalmologist?".
