  1. @lxTwisteDxl yeah actually im only 11. but im going to do like a experiment like how many times my eyes water a day, and how many times my eyes water a day with eyedrops. so idk i hope it gets better

  2. @chickachicka54 no problem, how old are you if you dont mind me asking? Im 16, so my eyes shouldn’t even be this bad, but its alright, they’re gettin better. Good luck with yours too.

  3. @lxTwisteDxl to be honest my eyes havent been as bad.. but its getting a little better, i dont know if it continues ill look into products and stuff, ill look up that thing you mentioned thx

  4. @chickachicka54 Has limiting your computer use helped at all? Mine seem to be getting a little better with Bausch&Lomb Advanced dry eye relief/rejuvenation eye drops, maybe they will work for you too

  5. @lxTwisteDxl for me its definately air conditioning blowing in eyes
    and computer use. after i found out computer use is a symptom i stopped using my comp. i limit myself to 25 mins a day

  6. @chickachicka54 yes, very annoying, having to keep your eyes closed from the wind blowing feeling/pain

    Not sure if we have the same things, but some reasons for me might be:

    long computer use
    air conditioning blowing in eyes
    allergies (maybe)
    lack of sleep (3-5 hours a day)

    All i can think of right now,

    Hopefully its nothing big and something can be done about it

  7. @lxTwisteDxl i coldnt agree more
    i have the same thing as you its really annoying i hope its not a big problem

  8. It feels like winds blowing in my eyes even if its not, and i have to squint, they go red, and hurt, most of the time eye drops dont work, do i have chronic dry eye?

  9. i have this problem for years. There is no permanent solution of dry eyes. Just use artificial tears every time :(

  10. Very interesting. I had very dry eyes after riding my motorbike all afternoon and had to use eyedrops the following day
