Are you struggling with a stinging, burning or scratchy feeling in your eyes? Are you light sensitive and sometimes have blurry vision? You may struggle with Dry Eye Disease.
We now provide a Dry Eye Therapy Program to help significantly relieve dry eye symptoms!
Why does this help?
Meibomian glands are oil glands found along the edges of the eyelids. They play an important role in keeping your eyes healthy. They release the clear oil, called meibum, that keeps the surface of your eyes moist by slowing down the evaporation of tears.
When these glands and not functioning properly, it tends to get clogged, and have an impact on the quality of your tears, causing dryness, discomfort, and inflammation around the eyelids.
We evaluate the meibomian glands, and offer treatment focused on improving the health of your glands. By doing so, we relieve discomfort by helping your own glands to secrete a better quality of tear.
What does the therapy program entail?
We start with a Dry Eye Evaluation to confirm the diagnosis, rate the severity, as well as the type of dry eye that you have. According to the results, we advise on the treatment program. This involves daily home therapy, tailored to your specific type of dry eye, as well as 3 to 4 weekly steam and debriding sessions
