Dry Eye in Children: Understanding the Issues and Finding Solutions

Dry eye might sound like a minor inconvenience, but for the little ones in our lives, it can be a major hurdle. Squinting through the school day, blinking furiously on the playground, and rubbing tired eyes during homework - these are all signs that something's not quite right with your child's eye health. But here's the good news: You"ve got allies in the fight against pediatric dry eye - and one powerful friend is the iTEAR100 device!

Dry eye in children can be sneaky. Instead of complaining about their symptoms, kids might just avoid activities that make their eyes feel worse. That's why it's crucial to recognize the early warnings. Look for these tell-tale signs:

Blinking more than usual can be a child's instinctive response to discomfort. If you notice your child blinking a lot, especially while focusing on something like reading or screen time, it may be a sign of dry eyes.

Kids rub their eyes for lots of reasons - tiredness, itchy allergies, or just because it feels good. But if rubbing becomes constant, they might be trying to soothe the irritation from a lack of tears.

Some kids are vocal about what they feel. If your child describes their eyes as feeling gritty, like there's sand in them, or if they feel scratchy, pay attention - these are classic dry eye symptoms.

Red, irritated eyes don't always mean your child didn't get enough sleep. If the whites of their eyes are consistently red, this could be a response to the lack of lubrication.

Children with dry eyes might shy away from windy playgrounds or complain about being near a smoky barbeque. These environments can exacerbate dry eye symptoms, making their discomfort more noticeable.

If your child shows any of these symptoms, it's worth exploring further with a professional. And when it comes to seeking solutions, that's where we step in.
