If you suffer from dry eyes, you'll be suffering much worse than usual in this extremely hot and dry weather.
Your eyes will be drying out much faster, particularly outdoors, and you're probably finding the sunshine far too bright.
Why do we seldom hear about the effect of extreme heat on our eyes?
Plenty of common sense advice is broadcast in hot weather, such as drinking plenty of fluids and wearing cool and loose clothing. But very little is said about how a heatwave affects our eyes and what, if anything we can do about it.
Actually, high temperatures and dry summer winds have a really debilitating effect on our eyes. Simply put, they make our tears evaporate much faster which leads directly to a range of symptoms which are collectively called Dry Eye Syndrome.
Dry Eye symptoms include redness, irritation and a burning sensation. Severe dry eye sufferers may actually produce more tears than normal, but of poor quality so they evaporate too fast to keep the eye lubricated in hot weather.
You don't need to suffer extreme dry eyes!
Get a well-fitting pair of moisture chamber glasses or sunglasses and you'll notice the difference within minutes.
When you're wearing the glasses, your eyes will feel less dry and sore. The gasket will reduce the glare that enters your eyes from around the sunglasses.
No wonder many of the UK's top ophthalmic specialists recommend moisture chamber glasses to their patients.
There is one important proviso!
Moisture chamber sunglasses have a soft protective gasket fixed to the back of the rims. This is designed to close off the gaps around your eyes, reducing evaporation of your tears.
For the moisture chamber effect to work, you need to find a pair of moisture chamber glasses that fit you closely around your eye sockets.
