Hi everyone

Just wanted to say thank you

my last post I was complaining of tired gritty eyes and you all were very helpful in recommending various eye drops so having tried a few suggestions have found boots hypromellose very helpful been using them for the last week and my eyes feel really soothed and relieved 😀

One less thing to worry about 👍

I have suffered from sore eyes over the years and found all sorts of things that help. Recently though I have learned two things which will hopefully help for years to come. One is that I need to ensure that I drink my two litres of water a day. If I wake up with sore eyes I immediately down a pint and they feel better almost straight away. The second is that I need to bathe my eyes . Apparently eye hygiene is important!

Hi

I'm not sure how to do that as I'm relatively new to the forum I just posted for advice and recommendations for eye drops I tried a few and found boots hypromallose very soothing you can buy them over the counter or ask your GP for them on prescription or if you ask other members they will give you advice

Hope this is helpful
