• Why there is a line in my glasses lens?

  Since you are sure they are not bifocals and not a crack, it may be something wrong with your glasses. You should take your glasses back to have them checked.

• Is it bad to use eye drops every morning?

  Most the eye drops not only have the function to treat some eye problems, but also they contain some anticorrosive ingredient. If you use them frequently, the anticorrosive ingredient will damage the structure of ocular surface and cause irritation. So you can use a small amount of eye drops when your eyes get tired to relieve the eye fatigue. Eye drops can not be prolonged use.
