Massage with a just warm washcloth over closed eyes may help relieve dry eye caused by blocked glands First confirm that the warm cloth is not too hot before placing it over closed eyelids. Follow up with a gentle massage. Use a finger tip covered with the cloth to apply gentle pressure through sweeping motions from the nose area across the eyelid toward the ear. It will provide great relief in dry eye.
Diet changes to include foods rich in vitamin A such as salmon, sardines, eggs, and proper nutritional supplements help to improve tear production and prevent dryness.
