What is
Dry Eye?
Dry eye syndrome is a common condition where your eyes do not produce enough tears or the right quality of tears to keep them lubricated and comfortable. Factors such as aging, environmental conditions, medications, and underlying health issues can contribute to the condition.
Dry Eye Assessment
Conducting a comprehensive dry eye assessment enables our optometrist to identify the underlying causes of your symptoms and accurately diagnose the specific type of dry eye you have. Once the evaluation is complete, the optometrist can recommend the appropriate treatment for you.
Dry Eye Treatment
Following your assessment, a tailored treatment plan will be created to address your specific needs.
Treatment may include prescription eye drops, therapies carried out at our practice such as E-Eye IPL, or lifestyle adjustments to improve tear quality and relieve discomfort.
