As we welcome the fall season, some of us might also unknowingly be dealing with increased dry eye symptoms. The warm, dry weather of this season results in dry, sore, itchy or watery eyes for many. Do not simply dismiss this discomfort as a result of fall allergies. Determining whether you’re dealing with dry eye or simply allergies is difficult for optometrists encounter during time of the year. In fact, it is possible for the two conditions to coexist making differentiation complicated.
Even though dry eyes and allergies may overlap in terms of
symptoms, their distinction is vital in identifying the correct treatment
strategy. For instance, treatment for dry eye includes treating the meibomian
glands and underlying inflammation causes. Even if you're already diagnosed with dry eye disease, the changing season might aggravate your symptoms requiring a change in your current therapy or treatment.
Risk Factors for Dry Eye
- Age
- Menopause, hormones
- Medications
- Lasik surgery
If any of these risk factors apply to you and you are suffering
from dry, sore, itchy or watery eyes, make sure to see your physician to find out the root cause.

Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future injectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because i have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but i still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr Itua Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Lung Cancer,Breast Cancer,Colo-Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Prostate Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
