“Can eye drops help with dry eyes?”
I have dry eyes and want to treat them. Can eye drops help with dry eyes?

Yes. Absolutely. The first line treatment for dry eyes is the use of an artificial tear drop. Use a reputable brand that guarantees the sterility of the product.
Sometimes they are quite helpful. Particularly if the dry eye is a tear deficiency dry eye. However, they can also be helpful with evaporative dry eye if they are a hypotonic tear solution. However, people with excessive evaporation need to have that problem treated directly. Although tears will temporize, they are not a good long-term treatment for that condition.
