Wash your face with lukewarm water, then soak a clean, soft towel in warm (not hot) water, wring it out, and place it gently over your closed eyes for 5–10 minutes. The warmth encourages better circulation and may help keep your tear film more stable overnight. Many eye health experts recommend warm compresses as a soothing way to ease morning dryness.
3. Nighttime Nutritional Support
While you eat dinner or enjoy a light evening snack, include a few eye-friendly foods. A handful of walnuts or almonds delivers vitamin E and healthy fats. Add some carrots for beta-carotene or spinach for lutein. These nutrients are often highlighted in studies on age-related eye comfort. Skip heavy meals close to bedtime so your sleep stays undisturbed.
