What Is Dry Eye?

Dry eye happens when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or only low-quality tears. The lack of lubrication can leave your eyes feeling uncomfortable and even impact your eye health. Chronic dry eye can increase the risk of eye infections or corneal scarring, impairing vision.

Common symptoms of dry eye include:

Blurry vision
Redness
Burning or stinging
Light sensitivity
Watery eyes

Personalized Dry Eye Solutions

Treating dry eye is a personalized process, as each person’s experience is unique. Symptoms can result from various factors like individual eye health, environment, health conditions, medications, and lifestyle. Your symptoms might worsen due to long hours in front of a computer, or maybe your tear production is affected by diabetes.

That’s why we begin by identifying the underlying cause of your dry eye.

Our comprehensive assessment of your eye health and discussion of your history and lifestyle can give us a thorough understanding of the root causes.

Personalized Dry Eye Solutions

Once we have a comprehensive understanding of your dry eye condition, we customize a tiered approach to meet your specific needs.

We start with practical solutions you can add to your daily routine, such as using artificial tears or taking regular breaks from digital screens. We can also prescribe medicated eye drops or provide in-office treatments like intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy.

We strive to create a treatment that seamlessly fits into your lifestyle. By working together, we can explore solutions that restore your eye comfort.

Light-Based Technology for Dry Eye Treatment

Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy is a light-based technology that can address dry eye symptoms by targeting the underlying cause. This noninvasive treatment promotes the production of quality tears by reducing inflammation and stimulating the meibomian glands, which are responsible for producing the essential oil layer of tears.

IPL therapy can help restore the natural moisture layer of your eyes, providing long-lasting relief that can refresh your eye comfort. Take the first step towards enhanced eye health and request an IPL therapy appointment today.
