Question
Hi Dr Grossman, I hardly wear contact lenses nowadays, I wake up every morning with a very dry right eye, quite difficult to blink, will get better an hour later, my degree is 6.50. Is this something serious? does mascara/eye contour cream I use make things worse? Thank you for reading, have a nice day!
Answer
You may just have a dry eye condition, though it is always recommended to get any eye concerns checked out by your eye doctor. If it is dry eyes, make-up can contribute to this problem if you are sensitive to any of the chemicals in the make-up.
You can try VIVA eyedrops and HydroEye for a month, and see if this helps improve the condition. please let me know if you have any questions. Take care.
