I believe working on the computer for 8 hours a day has made my dry eyes much worse. The other day I finally found a small humidifier I can use at my desk. I know not to get excited about anything after two days, but I have this thing misting right in front of me and I believe it is making a significant difference. My eyes don't seem to hurt much at all. In fact for me humidifiers in general have probably done more for me than any other treatment. That includes restasis, plugs, and over the counter drops. A friend found this on QVC, but I also found them here:

I am going to continue to use it and if it keeps working I am going to buy one for all my family and friends. They may not want to use a big humidifier, but I believe all of them would be willing to put this in their house (and I will sit right next to it ). With oils it is supposed to be a great air freshner as well. It is also nearly silent and doesn't take much water which is important because you almost have to use distilled water for these. When I had a bigger one I tried using regular water and it quit working within a month.
I will say when I first got it out and tried it, nothing happened. I was getting ready to call customer service, but I messed with the water sensor a bit and it seems to be working great now.
Soon I have to move from an office to a cubicle, which I dread because of the air and the lighting. I was afraid I would not be able to find a humidifier I could use there, but they will let me use this one (rules say they will accomodate things that are: reasonable and necessary). I will let you know in a few weeks if it is still working for me.
