Use fish oil supplements to get relief from dry eye

February 10th, 2011

Fish oil supplements contain essential omega-3 poly unsaturated fatty acids that provide multiple health benefits ranging from fetal growth, brain development and cardiovascular health to eye health. Recent research indicates that adding omega-3 fish oil supplements to your diet help to reduce your dry eye symptoms.

The study included 36 patients with dry eye who received either a placebo or an omega-3 fatty acid supplement. At the end of the study, after 90 days, 70% of the patients became asymptomatic, whereas for the placebo group, 7% of the symptomatic patients became asymptomatic. Testing suggested the omega-3 product increased tear secretion, with subjects showing greater average tear production and tear volume.

A chronic lack of sufficient lubrication and moisture due to multi-factorial reasons results in dry eye syndrome, causing constant irritation to severe inflammation of the eyes.

If you are diagnosed with dry eye syndrome, adding omega-3 fatty acid supplements may provide greater relief than achieved by over the counter lubricant eye drops alone.

Try Epacor, a high quality omega-3 fish oil supplement from Synergy Therapeutics Rx which is derived from only the purest marine lipid concentrate.
