How do you deal with dry eyes?

I have dry eyes due to sjogren's syndrome. Does anyone else deal with dry eyes?

@jubilta77 The Restasis Drops is prescription as are the Punctum Plugs that the Optometrist
has to numb your eyes up and insert. The Systane Complete drops are over the counter.

My eyes were very scratchy, painful and blurry. BUT, you can have what is called wet dry eyes,
were your eyes water.

I would make an appointment with your eye doctor and get an exam.

Blessings & Prayers....

My doctor prescribed Tryvaya which is a nasal spay that stimulates the trigeminal nerve that produces tears. This has been a miracle drug for me. (I have Lewy body dementia that has caused nerve dysfunction.)
