Dr. Wang Shuai
Dry eye syndrome is a common ocular condition, usually caused by insufficient lubrication of the eye's surface due to abnormalities in the quality or quantity of tears. It can result from various factors, such as aging, environmental conditions, certain medications, or autoimmune diseases. Dry eye syndrome can be managed and treated, but it is often a chronic condition that may require long-term treatment and management.
Please note that if you experience persistent or severe dry eye symptoms, you should seek medical attention promptly to avoid delays in treatment.
