Dry Eye

There are many factors that contribute to dry eye such as medications, smoking, environment, hormones, lifestyle, wearing contact lenses, decreased oil or tear production, surgeries, or other medical conditions. Our doctors evaluate your eyes and recommend an individual treatment plan for cases of dry eye: One of the first steps everyone should do to avoid dry eye is to drink enough water and keep their eyelids clean. Normal debris, bacteria, and makeup products commonly plug important oil glands and lead to dry eye symptoms.

If initial treatments of dry eye aren’t enough, don’t worry! There are many more treatments available, such as punctal plugs, iLux, Lipiflow, BlephEx, Zocular Eyelid System Treatment (ZEST), Intense Pulsed Light Therapy (IPL), Radio Frequency, Low Level Light Therapy, Platelet Rich Plasma, Autologous Serum, and Amniotic Membranes.
