It leads to symptoms such as stinging, redness, blurred vision or a sensation of a foreign body in the eyes. The main causes include hormonal changes, particularly in post-menopausal women, prolonged use of screens, pollution and contact lens wear.

To relieve symptoms, natural solutions can be considered. Vitamins play a key role: vitamin A promotes the production of mucin, essential for tear stability, while vitamin E protects cells against oxidative stress.
