You could try cod liver oil capsules, or something similar?
I was reading that they lubricant very well.
Omega 3 is especially good, so they say. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Why not go the whole way and drink rose hip syrup as well  :-X  ;D reminds me of lining up at school ........ along with the cod liver oil on a spoon.   :sick02:

Seabuckthorn capsules really good for dry eyes, quite expensive but worth it for me.

Thanks jillydoll, I've been using omega 3 for years as advised by optician. Think they do ease things along with the hycosan eye drops but it's just a constant battle at the moment....I also use heated eye masks occasionally 😊...thanks again!!

Thanks Jojo8765,  I have tried these before in the past.....like you said they're very expensive to take long term aren't they.  Didn't really see much improvement but I only used one boxes worth.  Do they help with overall dryness or is it just eyes?

I would think that heated masks would dry the eyes  :-\

Mine often feel gritty.

CLKD the heat masks don't dry your eyes. The heat really helps loosen the ducts behind your eyelids and then you massage the eyelids afterwards.....I don't do it that often but it helps 😊

Hi northerngirl, for me its just the dry eyes they help, sadly it doesnt help me with VA.
I use vagirux for that.  Also have very dry mouth that can be so annoying especially during the night.

Hi Jojo8765, I'm exactly the same as you. I literally think my whole body is slowly drying out 🤦‍♀️. Thanks for your help

It may well be drying out as oestrogen levels drop.  Inside and out  >:(: legs, scalp, deep in the ears, eyes, vagina etc..  I won't go on though I could.
