Continue tear substitute eye drops....no side effects. Decrease screen time.... consciously increase blink rate.....decrease air conditioner time/ use humidifiers.....use 20-20 rule. You can add omega 3 and vit. D3 substitutes.

Hi Lubrication drops are just tear substitutes, no harm in taking it for months But need to improve your eye health by avoiding more screen time and following vision 20-20 rules Once you get better slowly it can be withdrawn
