I've just been for my annual contact lens check-up and the optician said that my eyes are slightly dry because i don't blink properly :confused:

apparently i only half-blink, and so from now on, every so often, i have to force myself to do a couple of big blinks!

anyone else have this problem?

    Glaucoma is caused by increased pressure within the eye. I assume you have to have regular eye tests.

    That`s ok then. ;)
