I started taking fish oil (algae oil actually, but the active ingredients are identical) a month before my LASIK surgery and continue to take it today, and I've still never had any problems with dry eyes, including immediately after the surgery.
So, can't say whether it helped or not, but it certainly hasn't hurt.
Comments
I use fish oil for dry and red eyes and I also notice a big difference. Seem to notice, I suppose...
I've never had any issue with dry eyes.

I'm kind of curious, which brand do you use?
Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega. My eye doctor was specific on this brand--emphasizing the EPA and DHA levels.
