I had cateract surgery when I was 25(!) and no one warned me that there was a risk of dry eye. It wouldn't have changed my decision to have the surgery, but it meant that I didn't know why even after the healing process was expected to be complete, it still seemed like my vision and eyes were worse.
I clicked so fast! I suffer from dry eye 👁 Thank you for this video! Ok now I’m going to watch it!

I know my dry eyes have been made a little worse I think from wearing a mask as well. I'm going to do a treatment video next week!

I’ve noticed that certain ingredients in skincare products dry my eyes out pretty bad. Would be great if you could talk about that, if there are certain ingredients that we should avoid in skincare and sunscreens for sensitive eyes

Yes, the only thing i noticed is fragrance (an obvious one) and oily products that migrate into my eyes, which is sad because my skin is dessert dry 😑

Totally. Visits have to be so short these days so I’m glad I can dispense a little extra education!
It’s a little out of topic question, but can you tell me what is the best way to clean eye shadows to keep it from bacteria and cause any potential damage to the eyes. Thank you.
I have a question. I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night and my vision is kind of off. Almost like being cross eyed. It goes away after a couple minutes. It never happens during the day only sometimes after i wake up in the middle of the night. What could it be ? Thank you love your videos :)
I'd love to hear what you have to say about ocular rosacea ❤

Department stores are notorious for their air conditioning which basically works like a fan in terms of drying your eyes out. When you resume work, take a bottle of artificial tears with you!

Hi Christine. I'm so sorry you're in such pain. I can't comment specifically about your case, but in general, people with thyroid eye disease have dry eyes, strabismus and thyroid ophthalmopathy. See a dry eye specialist for help (I know how challenging that can be!). Good luck
First of all, thank you for the amazing videos second 40 is not old but why did I think you were in your 20s can you please share your skincare routine and diet?

Most definitely warm compresses help. You can do it with a washcloth and hot water, one of those eye masks or a rice sock
