I personally take several drugs for dry eyes and they are very expensive.

No, I meant cyclosporine just as I typed it. Yes it is an immune suppressant medications. Dry eye in Yorkies - also called keratoconjunctavitis sicca or "kcs" for short is an inherited autoimmune disease. The top of the line treatment is cyclosporine A ophthalmic soliton 1% or 2%. Teddy is on 1% twice a day to one eye and once a day to the other eye. Without the stimulant, they can get eye ulcers and other issues.
