Mild dry eye
The first signs of dryness — eyes that pull at the end of the day, screen discomfort, a gritty feeling. Three essentials chosen by optometrists to hydrate, soothe and prevent, starting now.
What your kit contains
Preservative-free artificial tears with hyaluronic acid. They hydrate and protect the surface of the eye on contact — use as needed throughout the day, even with contact lenses.
Omega-3s that work from the inside: they support a more stable, better-quality tear film. One dose a day, with a meal.
The Bruder mask warms up in about twenty seconds in the microwave and is worn 8 to 10 minutes. Moist heat frees the Meibomian glands, which produce the protective layer of your tears. Reusable hundreds of times.
The routine
Morning
Omega-3s with breakfast, and a drop in each eye if you wake up uncomfortable.
During the day
Drops as needed — long screen sessions, air conditioning, wind or dry air.
Evening
The warming mask for 8 to 10 minutes before bed, to keep those glands flowing.
