Ayurvedic Treatment for Dry Eyes

Decreased tear production is called as dry eye because it feels the eyes becoming dried up. Tears give natural lubrication to eyes and they help flush the waste products out of the eyes. So dry eye might lead to a higher chance forgetting inflammatory conditions of the eyes as well.

Pathophysiology of Decreased tear production (Dry eye)

Though it can develop due to a variety of reasons, dry eyes include such mechanisms like the increased osmolarity of the tear film and the inflammation of areas like the ocular surface or the lacrimal gland pathologically. It can develop in two ways when analysed the pathophysiology, one with decreased tear production or secretion known as Aqueous-deficient dry eye and the other is due to increased evaporation of the tear known as the hyper evaporative dry eye.
