Has anyone had issues with dry eyes due to RA or Sjrogen’s syndrome? If so, what have you done to improve this problem?

@LizziB I suffer with itchy eyes, more than dry, they don't feel dry or at least I don't think they do!

I have prescribed eye drops & have had for years. Tears naturalle eye drops eased the gritty , itchy feeling but in the last 18 months l have been given another type of eye drops & my eyes have become worse. I was told tears naturelle was no longer being manufactured. I now find relief with warm compresses applied to my eyes & that eases the discomfort for a short while.
