Understanding Xerophthalmia: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options
Xerophthalmia is a condition where the eyes become dry and inflamed due to a lack of tears. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including dry environments, certain medications, and systemic diseases such as diabetes or Sjogren's syndrome. Symptoms of xerophthalmia may include redness, irritation, blurred vision, and sensitivity to light. Treatment typically involves artificial tears and addressing any underlying causes.
