My family camps a lot and I have noticed that the smoke does irritate my eyes. I don’t know that it harms them in any other way than making them dry. My only eye symptoms so far are dry, red eyes. i do try to stay out of the smoke and one evening when we had a particularly smoky fire (from wet wood) I wore my sunglasses. Also – LOTS of preservative-free drops.

Hi I have a question related to TED – I have read that smoking is bad… luckily, I am not a smoker – however I am wondering are other fumes bad – ie.,sitting around a campfire, painting, etc.
Is it just the specific chemicals in cigarettes that are hard on the eyes or is it any types of smoke or fumes in the air as well?
Thanks
Lakeview
