How do warm compresses with a micro-bead or rice mask for ~10-15 minutes along with 1,000 mg of Omega-3 fish oil help with dry eye?
1. This helps with decreasing the immune system which is causing inflammation, thereby allowing more expression of water.
2. This prevents the tears from draining out of the eye allowing more tears to retain on the eye, thereby keeping it moist.
3. This adds a flood of water and fat like substances to the eye to moisten it.
4. This provides better tear quality and melts the fat to a liquid to allow better expression.
4. This provides better tear quality and melts the fat to a liquid to allow better expression.
