Smoking and Dry Eyes: How Tobacco Drains Your Tears

Smoking does more than hurt your lungs—it dehydrates the delicate tear film that keeps your eyes comfortable. This comprehensive guide explains, in clear everyday language, why cigarette smoke and even “just one puff” can leave your eyes stinging, scratchy, and red. You’ll discover the science behind smoke‑induced tear‑film breakup, why women and contact‑lens wearers feel it sooner, and how second‑hand smoke and vaping fit into the picture. We outline the latest treatment options—from over‑the‑counter artificial tears to prescription anti‑inflammatories and in‑office therapies—and give step‑by‑step tips for quitting, building a smoke‑free home, and healing your irritated eyes.
