Posting a video on Instagram, Nadia, 57, explained that since going through menopause, she's had increasingly dry eyes – though she has experienced sore peepers her whole life. "I've suffered with sore, dry eyes for years, firstly because as a teen I refused to wear my glasses and then as an adult I have worn and sometimes overworn my contacts," she wrote.

"Then when my menopause hit, just like everything else my eyes dried up too!" The presenter went on to explain how she copes with her dry eyes, explaining that Thealoz Duo eye drops are a "godsend" for soothing the issue. "As someone who has suffered with my eyes, I understand just how debilitating it can be and how much it can impact your everyday life," she added.
