Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) – Do you start making a cup of coffee when your eyes are dry?
King Saud Medical City’s official Twitter account stated that what you should actually drink is water.
The tweet indicated that there is a misconception that coffee is recommended to help her treat dry eye syndrome.
In fact, there is no scientific evidence to prove this, but drinking water is recommended to keep the body hydrated.
Dry eyes occur when the amount of tears in them decreases or their quality decreases, and therefore the degree of humidity decreases and affects vision.
Even mild dehydration can be considered a stressor for the body. People may experience nausea, loss of appetite if the body is not sufficiently hydrated, and difficulty concentrating and exercising.
Therefore, it is important to drink water.
The Institute of Medicine recommends that women drink 2.7 liters of fluid per day, while men recommend 3.7 liters.
But this recommendation doesn’t specifically focus on water, it does include all water-rich liquids and foods, including fruits, vegetables, and soups.
This recommendation is very general and the amount of water you should drink depends on factors such as your body’s activity level and climate.
Other factors to consider include pregnancy, breastfeeding, and illness.
