I can only suggest you make sure BEFORE you have eye surgery (lasik) make sure you don't already suffer from dry eye. I had Lasik in 2005 and still suffer to this very day from extreme discomfort and daily eye drops to moisturize my eyes. My eyes are soooo dry they are painful and itch 24/7. I have tried several eye specialists, prescription eye drops, special goggles; I have exhausted everything any doctor has recommended. The bottom line is make sure you are not predisposed to dry eye in the first place. I do get some relief from daily fish oil pills, which moisturize my eyes from the inside... I am the 1 in a million who would never recommend Lasik. It does happen that you could be worse off than you are now! Eye sight and all...
