Dry eye is a common eye condition that can cause discomfort and affect your vision quality. Managing dry eye is crucial to alleviate symptoms and maintain optimal eye health. At Eyes On Southern, we provide comprehensive dry eye management to help you find relief and restore your comfort.
Dry eye occurs when your eyes don't produce enough quality tears to keep the surface of your eyes well-lubricated. This can result in symptoms like:
Scratchy or gritty sensation in the eyes
Redness and irritation
Excessive tearing (a compensatory response)
Blurred vision
Light sensitivity
Discomfort when wearing contact lenses
Managing dry eye begins with a personalized assessment of your condition. Our experienced team will evaluate the severity and underlying causes of your dry eye symptoms. After a comprehensive examination, we will discuss treatment options tailored to your specific needs and preferences.
Artificial Tears: Over-the-counter artificial tears can help provide temporary relief by supplementing your natural tears.
Prescription Eye Drops: For moderate to severe dry eye, prescription eye drops may be recommended to reduce inflammation and improve tear production.
Lipiflow or IPL Therapy: Innovative treatments like Lipiflow or Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy can help address the root causes of dry eye by improving oil gland function and reducing inflammation.
Our approach to dry eye management is comprehensive and focused on finding the best treatment plan for your unique situation. Your comfort and eye health are our priorities, and we'll work with you to ensure your symptoms are effectively managed.
