mEYEspa has published a new guide explaining how environmental humidity and personal hydration levels influence dry eye symptoms, offering practical insight to support better everyday eye comfort and long-term management.
-- mEYEspa has released a new educational guide examining how environmental humidity in Canada, alongside personal hydration levels, affects dry eye symptoms, to help individuals better manage everyday eye discomfort.

The guide was published on the back of insights from a population-based survey of Canadian adults published in the journal Ocular Surface, which found that dry eye disease affects an estimated 21% of the population, equating to more than six million people nationwide. Environmental and lifestyle factors, including indoor humidity and hydration levels, are contributors to these symptoms. In light of this, the clinicians at mEYEspa has released its new guide to help individuals better understand the environmental and hydration-related impacts to their dry eye symptoms.
The consumer-friendly guide focuses on identifying how habits and surroundings affect tear film stability. Example: Maintaining indoor humidity is recommended, since dry indoor air, common during winter heating months or heavily air-conditioned spaces, can accelerate tear evaporation and worsen irritation.
Alongside offering environmental guidance, the resource addresses personal hydration habits, noting that adequate water intake supports the body's ability to produce tears. This includes regular water intake, screen use, and Omega 3 dietary considerations that may help support tear production and reduce discomfort over time.
The guide also includes information on product and lubrication support for individuals experiencing persistent symptoms, such as preservative-free artificial tears and humidifier use that can complement environmental and hydration adjustments.
"By combining environmental awareness with hydration-focused guidance, mEYEspa hopes to provide a more holistic view of the factors contributing to dry eye symptoms - rather than treating either cause in isolation," explains the Dr Jason Morris. "The goal is to help individuals identify factors that can impact their symptoms, make informed adjustments to their daily routines and surroundings, and know when to seek professional care.."
