There Is Hope

Shilpi Pradhan, MD Author Interview

Goodbye, Dry Eye! offers readers a comprehensive guide to dry eye disease including causes, symptoms, treatments, and methods of prevention. Why was this an important book for you to write?

As a dry eye specialist, I see so many people with basic questions and errors which can cause their eyes to get worse. I hope my book provides some relief to those who are struggling and not getting the answers they need from their doctors or tips to allow their treatments to work more effectively. It was important to write this book to try to increase the number of people I can help through a widely accessible book rather than only my patients who I see in clinic.

Readers will connect with the personal accounts in your book. Can you tell us a little about that aspect of your research and writing process?

This was my first book so the writing process was probably more scattered than it could be in the future. I would write chapters and then think of new things to add and move paragraphs around to help it flow better. Researching the updated research to put in my book was also fun. It helped me organize my thoughts to read research papers and different perspectives on the causes and treatments of dry eye disease. It took about 5 months total to research and write the book before I submitted it for professional editing and formatting. Learning about the publishing process was also fun and enlightening.

What is one thing you hope readers take away from Goodbye, Dry Eye! ?

I want readers suffering with dry eye to realize there is hope and a way to get them back to living a normal life with proper treatment.

What is the next book you are working on, and when will it be available?

My next book is called How Healers Heal, and it was published in August of 2023. It is a collection of stories from 33 physicians about our own health struggles and how we used tools from the six pillars of health in Lifestyle Medicine to transform our lives and our health.
