🔥 Wildfire smoke + allergy season = a rough combination for your eyes.
If your eyes have been feeling dry, gritty, itchy, watery, irritated, or tired lately, you’re not imagining it. Smoke, wind, ash, and seasonal allergens can all disrupt the tear film and worsen dry eye symptoms.
A few things that may help:
💧 Use preservative-free lubricating eye drops throughout the day
🔥 Apply a warm compress to support healthy oil glands and improve tear quality
😎 Wear sunglasses outdoors to help shield your eyes from wind, smoke, and airborne irritants
At Peak Eyecare, some of our favorite products for wildfire season include:
• OPTASE HYLO Relief for everyday hydration and comfort
• OPTASE HYLO Forte for more persistent dryness and irritation
• OPTASE Allegro for eyes that are feeling irritated by seasonal allergens and environmental triggers
