The Details of Dry Eye
Your tears are made up of 3 layers, the oily outer layer, the watery middle layer, and the inner mucus layer.
Dry eye can occur when the glands that produce these elements of your tears are not functioning properly or become inflamed. Inflammation of the glands that line your eyelids can also lead to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). MGD can reduce oil production, causing water to evaporate and leading to dryness.
Symptoms, Signs, & Risk Factors of Dry Eye
Common signs and symptoms of dry eye may include:
- Blurry vision
- Watery eyes
- Light sensitivity
- A stinging, scratching, or burning feeling
Your environment and other risk factors like exposure to the wind or dry air, long-term contact lens wear, and digital eye strain, can increase the chances of dry eye developing.
Your Dry Eye Assessment
Finding relief from dry eyes starts with a quality eye exam. Your dry eye assessment is all about the details. Our team conducts a full analysis of your dry eye issues to address and get to the root cause of your symptoms.
Following your assessment, our team can prepare a personalized treatment plan to help you find relief.
