Hi doctor,
I spend nine hours daily in front of a computer for the last five years. I have developed dry eye problem before two years and consulted a doctor. The doctor suggested Omega 369 tablets (Fultos 369) for 15 days and an eye drop (Softdrops) daily. The dry eye problem cured after taking tablets and has been using the same eye drop daily for around four to five times since then. My eyesight was tested and fine that time. I use transparent lens and glasses while working because without that it feels the moisture is getting evaporated from eyes. I also use an eye mask after keeping in freezer to relax eyes for some time. In the last month, I again started feeling some burning sensation in eyes like earlier due to dry eye. I started taking Omega 369 tablets (Well 369) for 10 days and the eye burning problem almost stopped. Now, I am feeling the same burning problem in the eyes. These are some specific queries on this issue. How much dosage of Omega 369 can be taken for dry eye this time? What are the best medicines having Omega 369? Is there any side effect of having Omega 369 for a long time? Which foods are the best supplements of Omega 369 in this case? Is there any side effect of using eye drop for a long time? I put 2 drops in each eye for four to five times daily. Is there any alternative treatment or medicine for dry eye problem? I am looking forward your reply. Thank you.

Thank you doctor,
Osmega tablet seems to have only omega 3, but earlier tablets had omega 369. Which one is better for dry eye treatment? Should I take this for 30 days or less, since I had the other medicine for 10 days recently? What are the benefits of eye drops you referred when compare to the Softdrops? Should I use them along with Softdrops? I could not get I-Omega tablet. Please mention its brand name.

Thank you doctor,
I am planning to have Osmega for three months as advised. I just want to know whether the dry eye problem will cure after that or it may come again. It got cured before two years, but started again. So, I am worried. Can I have Osmega with current eye drop Softdrops and see how it works? Or should I start using Imudrops along with Osmega from the beginning? Do I have to use Softdrops along with Imudrop for lubricant purpose? Is there any problem of using both Softdrops and Imudrops together? Will Imudrops cause any side effect?

Thank you doctor,
How to do warm compress exactly with eyes? Which is better, either a warm compress or a cold eye mask for dry eyes? Are there any medical eye glasses (like computer game glasses) for dry eye protection? Will the dry eye problem have any adverse effect on a long run since my work is with a computer?
