Re: Dry Eye Syndrome

RB, I take Super EPA fish oil, olive & coconut oil as well twice daily. I have wicked dry eyes which have become a bother since taking Femara. I had Lasik over a dozen years ago with little eye dryness, but now in my depleted estrogen condition, my eyes require gel drops and ointment at night. Sigh....growing old is not for the faint of heart, but sure beats the alternative!
