Dr. Neal Guymon discusses dry eyes and one of the biggest contributors to dry eyes, meibomian gland dysfunction (mgd) and blepharitis. Dr. EyeGuy talks about the four best advanced dry eye treatments at home that can help get rid of dry eyes. Dry Eyes can be very overwhelming and sometimes complicated to treat. Dr. EyeGuy has put together his top four Dry Eye home remedies and treatments that can work for most people. High Quality Omega-3 supplements or fish oil is very important. Keeping eyelids clean is also very important. Blepharitis can cause serious inflammation to the meibomian glands, which leads to dry eyes. Using a hypochlorous acid solution will help control bacteria on the eyelids. Heat Masks, warm compresses, and eyelid massages help keep the meibomian glands functioning.

    I have a cornea condition that causes severe dry eyes. I am also alergic to most of the preservatives they use to make most products that are supposed to help. After countless doctors & all their recommendations that actually made things worse, I decided to try my own idea & use the same thing I use for any topical application to the body...cold pressed virgin coconut oil. Just put a dab in the bottom eyelid and blink several times to spead it around. Not only does it work wonders, but is extremely affordable. I will never use anything else. Last trip for followup the doctor asked if the "Cequa" was working. I told him my insurance would't cover the $600 and told him what I've been using. At first he was appauled, but after seeing how much of an improvement I have, he actually told me to keep using it. You'll never hear a doctor tell you that!

    You are so spot on and very grateful to you education and help. This has been the worst of my dry eyes and I was getting really scared thinking it was my eyes itself. Never thought it would be my eye lids until I was doing the research for any kind of help. Last night I saw your first video I have looked at. I did the warm compresses, light massage and hard blinking. That alone made a huge difference. I was told that using eye drops for tears was damaging to the eyes. I have been using Refresh Tears Lubricant Eye Drops that was recommended by my eye doctor few years back. It does help but I saw a new one I never saw that you recommended. I have a hard time taking pills so I am eating foods with Omega in it and hopefully it will help. Thank you so much for your video's because they have put my mind at ease and working on better health.

During this time I rested and avoided screens etc....as a result the dry eye issue almost disappeared. It's something to consider. Now I limit my time in front of screens & try to avoid them on the weekends. 🙂

However, do you have a more affordable recommendation/alternative to Electric Heated Eye Masks?😬It would be really appreciated if you had a more affordable electric mask to share with us🙏Or if you could tell us if any available on the market would be good for dry eyes or what to look for. Also, useful to know it’s important to use artificial tears in the morning. I assumed eyes should be more moist since they were closed for hours; so good to know that it’s good to start of the day using them since I always waite a while after I start my day/begin working on the computer(trying not to abuse their use).

For GLA, I was using Now Foods. I have since discontinued this. Half a year after getting SMILE, my MGD has improved substantially because I am not wearing contacts every day. I continue to take the omega 3 for heart health (even though there is some question as to if such supplementation has benefit in that area.) I also still do the Bruder mask and scrub, but once every few days instead of twice a day. I also did not note in the original comment that I take a high dose of turmeric. I started taking it for arthritis, as it is a potent anti-inflammatory. However, I think it likely played a role in my SMILE recovery and MGD management because it how great it is at knocking down inflammation, and both refractive eye surgery recovery and MGD entail inflammation.

    Dr. Guymon, great video! You’re doing a wonderful service. As one OD to another, may I suggest that you consider the underlying cause of dry eye? I believe dry eye is part of a syndrome of inflammatory metabolic disease. Omega 3 helps greatly with inflammation, but if you reverse insulin resistance, you will see massive improvement in patient success. Unless we correct the cause, we are just managing symptoms.

    Eyedrops is supposed to give instant relieve/result for blurry due to dry eye, am I right? But using it will cause blurry due to the sticky ingredient (same goes to natural tears when we cry). If we wait long enough, then our vision will be less blurry but that also means the eyedrops has become lesser/dismiss. So what's the point? Or am I the only one who get blurry vision after putting eyedrops?

    Depends on the person and their tear film. Some people get immediate clear vision and better feeling eyes. Also, if you have dry patches, punctate erosions on the surface of the eyes, that can cause blurry vision. Using eye drops can help heal those dry patches, or prevent them from happening, and clear your vision.

    This was so helpful! I am scheduled for cataract surgery and out of the blue, I'm told I should have the Lipiflow treatment first. I'm getting the Panoptix Trifocal surgery, which is very expensive in itself and insurance doesn't cover it. Then she told me to delay the cataract surgery and get the Lipiflow treatment, which also isn't covered by insurance. So expensive. I'm retired and my husband is close to retirement so every bit counts. I told them to forego the Lipiflow and stick with the one surgery. Am I making the right decision?

    This is an amazing question. This is something that I fear as a doctor.... It's hard not come off as a salesperson, yet still want the best for the patient. For me, I honestly think Lipiflow can benefit everybody, so I know that it would help. But, the real question is how much of a benefit will it be to you before the surgery, and is it worth the cost. That is the tricky question. You can always have the lipiflow after the surgery. Did you doctor mention how blocked your glands were right now? Did he go over Omega 3's or warm compresses, lid massages or anything like that? Do you eyes feel dry or have any bad symptoms/signs of dry eyes? If you have no symptoms, no bad signs of dryness on the surface of your eyes, and your glands still look great but just maybe slightly reduced in function, then I would say you made the right decision on going forward with the cataract surgery. You can always have lipiflow afterwards.

    @@emptyspace9619 Hi, yes it did resolve after seeing a doctor, the problem was probably due to my diabetes, i took some special eye drops, got glasses for computer and studying with a blue filter on it and overall a better shift from my old lifestyle and now i'm totally fine, what's your case?
