Hello Diary,
Today, a woman came into Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, standing in front of the eye care section, clearly unsure of what to choose. She approached me with a question that I hear often: “My eyes feel so dry lately, especially after staring at the computer all day. Can you help me find something for dry eyes?”
I smiled and guided her toward the artificial tears section. “For dry eyes, a great option is Systane Eye Drops. It’s designed to lubricate and moisturize the eyes, providing quick relief for irritation caused by dryness, especially for those who spend a lot of time on screens.”
She was curious about how it works, so I explained that Systane creates a protective layer over the surface of the eyes, helping to maintain moisture. It’s perfect for those experiencing eye strain from computers, air conditioning, or even dry weather.
“Is it safe for everyday use?” she asked.
“Yes,” I assured her, “Systane is safe to use multiple times a day if needed. Just make sure you use it as directed and store it properly.”
She picked up a box but was still curious. “Do I need to be concerned about any long-term side effects?”
I explained that for most people, Systane is well-tolerated, but if she noticed any discomfort or persistent dryness, it might be worth discussing with an eye doctor. I also suggested other ways to prevent dry eyes, such as taking frequent breaks from her screen, blinking more often, and using a humidifier in dry environments.
After our chat, she felt more confident about her choice and thanked me for the advice. Another small win for patient care!
Every day, I get the chance to make a difference, no matter how small the issue might seem. Whether it’s a simple recommendation for dry eyes or something more complex, helping people take control of their health is why I love being a pharmacist.
