My right eye feels dry
Being a software engineer, I have to spent my whole day in front of a computer. Sometimes after excess use, my right eye feels dry and not comfortable. Most of the times it is in the evening. If I was awake till late then it happens in the morning too.
I noticed that tears come very less from this particular eye. Since it is not comfortable my focus is always this eye. Any suggestions?
