I need advice for dry eyes

You should consult directly with a practitioner in your area. There are many possible factors with dry eyes and proper treatment requires proper diagnosis, certainly from a Chinese Medicine perspective (see “treating the cause vs. the symptoms” for more).

This is a commonly treated, and in most cases fully resolved, condition, but, again, the treatment depends on much more than the symptom of “dry eyes”. There can be allergies, hormonal issues, digestive issues, neurological issues, stress issues and any combination of the above - the “causes” are what you technically treat in Chinese Medicine.
