The eyes are often exposed to high levels of stress: working on a screen, watching television for hours, reading in poor lighting conditions or monotonous, fast work processes put a strain on the eyes. The result is dry or watery eyes and itching or burning. In addition, dizziness, headaches, blurred vision or sensitivity to light may occur. Homeopathic remedies counteract overexertion and bring rest to the eyes.
