Ever wake up in the morning and your eye lids feel as if they are stuck together?
This type of morning dryness is actually a result of dry eyes at night. Many who suffer from chronic dry eye experience extreme dry eyes in the morning upon waking up. In some cases, dry eye pain is so severe that it requires frequent instilment of eye drops during the night, causing disturbed sleep and fatigue the next day.
What is causing these phenomena?
Some of the causes for night time dry eye include:
- Partially open eye lids allowing tears to evaporate (This can be made worse when you go into REM sleep as the eyelids may flutter causing friction)
- Lower body temperature and metabolism which delivers less nutrients and blood to the eye
- Reduced tear production as a result of a slower metabolism
- Allergens in or around your bed that may spark dry eyes such as; sheets, pillows, dust mites, pet fur, etc…
What are some of the remedies for night time dry eye?
- TheraLife Eye Enhanced – take 4 capsules right before bed time.
- Place a humidifier in the bedroom to provide more moisture
- Avoid sleeping under a heater or air vent
- Avoid sleeping in the direct path of a fan
- Use preservative-free nighttime eye gels or ointments that protect the eye
- Use night time goggles with moisture pads to prevent tear evaporation
How to test if you have night time dry eye?
A good home alternative for this is to take two cotton discs, run them under cool tap water and use surgical or athletic tape and tape them over your eyes at night. The moisture pads create a barrier that protect your eyes and prevent excessive tear evaporation. If this improves your night time dryness, consider investing in some night time hydration goggles.
How Can TheraLife Eye Enhanced help?
TheraLife® Eye Enhanced functions by increasing intracellular metabolism (Mito-Activation), membrane permeability and blood micro circulation. This enables the Eye Enhanced to stimulate the all the tear glands (meibomian, lacrimal and goblet cells) to secret its own tears naturally as well as overcome issues with poor micro-circulation and membrane permeability. Taking TheraLife Eye Enhanced capsules before bedtime can often relieve night time dry eye symptoms.
