Meet Lisa Myers, DEF's newest board member.

"The Dry Eye Foundation was a lifeline for me during one of the hardest periods of my life, and joining the Board feels like an opportunity to give back and contribute to an organization whose mission I believe is so essential today. My experiences with chronic illness, patient advocacy, and counseling all came together in unexpected ways through dry eye disease. I understand firsthand how isolating and misunderstood these conditions can feel.

I’m both a dry eye patient and a longtime advocate for people living with chronic illness. My dry eye journey began about six years ago, when severe symptoms led me through a long and often frustrating search for answers, specialists, and treatments. This was not my first encounter with a poorly understood, life-altering condition. More than 30 years ago, I developed chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), which changed the course of my life and career. Wanting to help others facing similar challenges, I became deeply involved in the chronic illness community—running a CFS/Fibromyalgia website, writing articles, and building online communities and resources. Another important part of my background is my training in counseling psychology and my work as a grief counselor, which shaped my understanding that grief is associated not only with the loss of a loved one, but also with the challenges of illness. Dry eye disease and other ocular surface disorders can profoundly affect quality of life, identity, and emotional well-being."
