Theo Soft Eye Drop is a lubricant. It is used in the treatment of dry eyes. It moistens the eyes and relief from discomfort and temporary burning. It also helps in treating corneal burns by forming a soothing layer that reduces irritation and protecting the damaged cornea.

Theo Soft Eye Drop is usually instilled whenever needed. Use the number of drops as advised by your doctor.

Dry eyes is the common side effect after lasik

Hello doctor,I am a student so I sleep late and I rarely get a sleep of more than 7 hours and there's significant usage of phone while I'm awake. My eyesight seems to be normal but when I wake up in the morning, my eyelids are heavy and I find it difficult to keep my eyes open and there is minor irritation in the eyes. It goes away as the day progresses and after I wash my eyes properly in the morning. Please let me know what could be the problem and what medicine should I take to counter it. Thanks a lot :)
