Understanding Dry Eye Syndrome in Summer
Dry eye occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears or the quality of tears fails to keep the surface of your eyes moist. While it can happen at any time of the year, certain elements specific to summer weather can worsen the condition. The main factors are high temperatures, increased evaporation rates due to low humidity, and air conditioning use, which reduces indoor moisture. Summer activities like swimming and extended periods outdoors can further irritate sensitive eyes.
The symptoms of dry eye are unmistakable and can range from mild irritation to significant discomfort, impacting daily activities and overall quality of life. Common signs include:
- A stinging, burning, or scratchy sensation in your eyes
- Sensitivity to light
- Redness and inflammation
- A feeling of having something in your eyes
- Difficulty wearing contact lenses
- Blurry vision, especially towards the end of the day
