Reduce dry eye symptoms

What this outcome means

Dry eye symptoms are the gritty, burning, or stinging sensations that show up when your eyes aren't staying properly lubricated. On DoseRank it maps to a defined health outcome built from human studies on tear break-up time, OSDI symptom scores, and tear production measures – data sourced from open sources and specialized resources. DoseRank is not medical advice.

Thin spots
