Hello I am sorry but in many cases permanent treatment is not possible Regarding treatment of dry eyes A. First identify the cause of dry eyes B. Classify it if it is evaporative dry eye or hyposecretive dry eye C. Maintain lid hygiene ( treat meibomitis which is usually associated with dry eyes) D. Use lubricating eyedrop frequently E. Cyclosporine eyedrop may be required In very severe hyposecretive dry eyes other options are also there Regards

Dryness is not a disease which you can cure by putting lubricating eye drops for few days, while working on smartphone , computer & watching TV for long time without giving importance to the health of eyes. Number of blinking drastically goes down from around 24 per minute to around 8 per minute while working on computer etc causing severe dryness, blurring of vision, headache & increased blinking to compensate dryness .One who works on smartphone etc will have to change &will have to learn how to work on computer for long time without giving any trouble to eyes .One should look away from computer after every 10 minute & should take rest for 10 minutes after every two hours .Every body knows that to become man from monkey took millions of years according to Darwin theory & how you expect that our eyes will adjust to computer in 20 yrs,nature takes its own time, computer development is just 20 yrs history, so you will have to take the help of lubricating eye drops to neutralise the effect of computer etc
