Question: Hi Doc,
I have the dry eyes issue, although I eat green veggies and drink a good amount of water daily, I'm still not able to reduce the dryness. I also do exercises every day, but it is not helping me out. Please suggest some remedy.
Regards,
Sharad.

Brief Answer:
Exclude possible causes first

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but I would recommend that you exclude possible causes of dry eye first which includes thyroid hormonal imbalance, vitamin A difficiency and diabetes. So please get a blood test for blood glucose levels both fasting and postprandial, together with a blood test for thyroid hormonal profile including T3, T4 and TSH and a blood test for vitamin A level.. I hope you find this helpful..
