Episode 168: Natural Remedies for Dry Eyes: Tips to Relieve Dry Eye Syndrome & Improve Vision
Manage episode 448472371 series 2928156
In this episode of The Visibly Fit Podcast, I’m diving into a topic that so many of us struggle with but often overlook: dry eye syndrome. If you’ve ever felt that gritty, irritating sensation in your eyes after hours in front of a screen or experienced that “stuck” feeling in your eyelids at night, this episode is for you. Dry eyes aren’t just an inconvenience; they can impact your quality of life. So, I'm sharing the reasons behind dry eyes and, even better, practical, natural ways to relieve and prevent this discomfort.
You'll get a chuckle out of some of my personal stories – like my insistence on sleeping with a fan on, even though it might make things worse. And if you’re looking for alternatives to those eye drops, I’ll introduce you to some surprising natural options, from omega-3s to simple eye exercises you can do anywhere. This episode is packed with easy solutions and real encouragement to make eye health a priority. So, if you’re tired of tired eyes, tune in to learn how to bring comfort back to your vision and make it a part of your wellness journey!
