Get to the Root: What Causes Dry Eye?

Understanding the root causes of dry eyes is fundamental to effective treatment. The following factors can all contribute to the discomfort of dry eyes:

  • Genetics
  • Environmental factors
  • Natural aging process
  • Prescription medications
  • Hormonal changes:
    • Women experiencing pregnancy, breastfeeding, oral contraceptive use, or menopause are more prone to dry eye symptoms.
    • Women over 50 have double the risk of developing dry eye syndrome (DES) compared to men of the same age.
