I just found Rebecca's site and this list 2 days ago, while feeling some despair over how none of my large collection of eye drops seem to work at all anymore and dreading asking doctors for help.
Already some of the tips are helping: I wore big dark glasses over my glasses most of the day yesterday while running errands -- helped! (Plan to weatherstrip part of the frame today.)
Then I practiced blinking a lot and found that seemed to moisten my eyes better than the eye drops. (Can one do it too much?)
Eyes are only mildly uncomfortable this morning -- a big improvement from the watering, stinging and so forth!
I really appreciate the tips!
(Probably just dry eye. I'm 57, take a diuretic for blood pressure, work with computer, and have mild problems with plugged oil ducts which I routinely lid scrub for daily for years.)
