The best nutritional supplements to reduce dry eye symptoms contain omega-3 fatty acids. These "omega-3s" — especially molecules described as long-chain EPA and DHA — are anti-inflammatory in nature.

In a major study of 40,000 female health professionals, increases in dietary omega-3 fatty acids resulted in a 30 percent reduction in the risk of dry eye symptoms for each 1000 mg of omega-3s consumed daily.

In another study, 478 computer users with dry eyes were given daily nutritional supplements for a period of three months. The subjects were given either 1) two omega-3 capsules, each containing 180 mg EPA and 120 mg DHA, or 2) two placebo capsules containing olive oil. At the end of the 3-month period, 70 percent of participants who were given the omega-3 supplements reported being free of dry eyes symptoms, compared with only 15 percent among those who were given the placebo pills.
