📋Overview
Restasis is a medication that helps increase the production of tears in the eyes. It is commonly associated with the management of chronic dry eye conditions, particularly when tear production is reduced due to inflammation. The drug works by affecting the immune response in the eye, aiming to improve lubrication and comfort. Restasis is often used in cases where artificial tears alone are not sufficient to relieve symptoms.
