What Does Dry Eye Treatment Entail?
It depends on you. Each case is unique because the factors that go into dry eye disease vary. That’s why your first consultation is a long chat with your eye doctor, so we can narrow down likely causes and contributors — along with unavoidable environmental factors — so we can create a plan that works specifically for you. Since the most common type of dry eye is evaporative (which means the tear film isn’t properly lubricating the eye), it often involves unclogging blocked oil glands, reducing inflammation, or both. And we have a large variety of dry eye treatment solutions at our disposal so regardless of how unique or severe your situation is, we’ve got you covered.
Why is Dry Eye Management Important?
Why should you seek relief from dry eye? Simply put, it offers much-deserved comfort. Many people resign themselves to coping with dry eye symptoms, but enduring this discomfort is unnecessary. Although symptoms might initially appear mild, they can worsen over time, becoming more difficult to manage and leading to persistent irritation and pain throughout the day. Ultimately, what could be more beneficial than complete relief?
