What Causes Dry Eye?

The causes of dry eye symptoms are more easily determined when they relate to lifestyle and environmental considerations. However, many times the cause lies deeper within the functions of the eye itself. When Dry Eye is caused by underlying factors, it is usually due to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).
