What Causes Blurred Vision And Dry Eye?

My son, a law student, has blurred vision and minimal bruising. He went to the eye doctor who told him he has very dry eye and gave him a prescription. Otherwise healthy, even though his diet is extreme at times.Awaiting blood work results. He is worried. Should we go to a different specialist?
