Dry eye treatment is recommended to be done once or twice a week.

Jakarta - Eye specialist graduate of the University of Indonesia Dr. dr. Nina Asrini Noor, Sp.M, recommends dry eye treatment in the form of steam spa to be repeated periodically, once or twice a week.

"The ideal time to carry out therapy is one to two weeks," Nina told media crew in Jakarta, Saturday.

Dry eye treatment aims to maintain eye health on an ongoing basis, considering that the condition requires long-term management and not just a one-time treatment.

"Dry eyes require ongoing treatment, unlike the flu which can be cured with one treatment," said Nina.
