Dry Eye Syndrome occurs when your eyes are not being moisturized frequently enough by tears. Ironically, the drier the eyes are, the more the cornea can become desensitized. That’s why many people get used to having chronic dry eyes. That dry eye level is now their new norm.

Dry eyes are caused by many factors. Environment, diet, and hydration are some of the common causes. Using digital devices all day is one of the main factors contributing to dry eye syndrome.

Redness, watering, scratchiness and itchiness are common symptoms. If your eyes are exhausted at the end of the day, if you work extensively with computers/ digital devices or if you use eye drops that give you minimal relief, you likely have dry eyes.

Dry eyes can cause your vision to fluctuate, making it difficult to function in daily life. It can be debilitating if it gets severe. Get a dry eye evaluation to find out more information.

There are different layers in the eye, and your drops might be insufficient to treat the correct layer. Your eye drops may be focusing on the water layer, but will evaporate within a few seconds if your oil glands are blocked. We focus on understanding the cause of your dry eyes, to relieve the symptoms by going to the root of the problem.

Dry eye evaluations are typically $199. If you scheduled an eye exam as part of our other services, there is a complimentary Dry Eye scan and evaluation that is included. Please contact us for more information on pricing. Treatments vary from person to person depending on their evaluation.

We recommend having a comprehensive eye exam at least once a year. During the comprehensive eye exam, a complimentary dry eye screening is offered.

During your evaluation, we will perform a Lipiscan, a screening that allows us to know if your meibomian (oil) glands are healthy or not. We will evaluate the various tear layers, cornea health, lids and lashes, and your ability to blink. Our doctors will also evaluate your environment and lifestyle to see how you can make adjustments to your daily activities to help reduce your symptoms of dry eyes.

There is not one cure for dry eyes as it is a multi-factorial disease of the eyes. We offer solutions and education about how to manage and maintain good eye health to reduce the symptoms of dry eyes.

This is a screening of the meibomian gland to structurally determine the integrity of the oil producing glands. That alone DOES NOT determine if these glands are functioning properly. A normal scan does not mean you don’t need treatment or do not have dry eyes.

We have a holistic approach and treat not just the symptoms. We direct our attention at the root of the problems that are causing the symptoms and educate you on lifestyle modifications to help you manage your dry eyes. We are one of the few Optometric practices that offer both the Miboflo and LipiFlow treatment options for meibomian (oil) gland dysfunction. Our 20/20 Dry Eye Spa is also proud to offer IPL (intense pulsed light therapy) as an in-office treatment.

You need a dry eye evaluation in order for the doctor to determine the severity of dry eyes you have. Some treatments work better for people’s lifestyle as maintenance is a vital part of the management of dry eyes.

Once treated, there is still maintenance that is needed to have minimal symptoms of dry eyes. We will educate and help evaluate your lifestyle and diet as well as having solutions to address the causes of your dry eyes.
