Common symptoms include burning or stinging pain in the eyes, blurred or changed vision, mucus coming out of the eyes, and watery eyes with excess tears running down the cheeks.

Persons older than 50 years, women, particularly of menopausal age, low vitamin levels, wearing contact lenses, or after refractive surgery, can increase the risk factor for developing dry eyes.
