Balancing Dry Eye Care & Treatment: Eye Drops and Injection Options

Hi everyone,
I've been dealing with persistent dry, irritated eyes lately—especially after long screen time and seasonal allergies. While researching, I found two really detailed resources that helped me understand the different treatment pathways:

• Eye drops: ? https://edpillsforever.com/eye-drops/
  
• Eye injections: ? https://edpillsforever.com/product/tropi...plus-3-ml/
  

What I found helpful:

• The eye drops article breaks down which ingredients work best for dryness vs irritation, and how to pick a lubricating eye drop based on your symptom type.
  
• The injection page explains when more intensive treatments might be recommended—what to expect, risks vs benefits, and how it fits into eye care for chronic issues.
  
• Both highlight that "one size doesn't fit all" in eye care: depending on your cause (allergies, screen fatigue, inflammation, retinal issues) the treatment varies.
  

I'm curious to hear from others:

• Have you had success just using lubricating drops? Or did you end up needing something more (like injections)?
  
• How did you determine the trigger of your eye issues (screen time, allergies, other health factors)?
  
• If you tried drops first, how long before you felt you needed to escalate treatment?
  
• Any tips on how to make the drops more effective (timing, combination with other habits) or how you prepared for injections?
  

Would love to hear your experience with either or both—thanks in advance!
