dry eye disease
"I have severe dry eye due to MGD. I had tried Restasis, but producing tears wasn't my problem, it was the lipid layer that keeps them from evaporating, so Restatis did nothing for me. Before Xiidra, I couldn't even carry on a conversation without closing my eyes.  I couldn't be in a room with a fan on even though I live in Phoenix.  I quit reading books, limited my computer time, and generally quit doing many things I love, like sewing or anything involving my eyes, just about everything!! I know it doesn't cure my condition, but at least I can forget about it now.  I am so grateful for Xiidra"
