How Do We Treat Dry Eyes?
In this treatment, gentle heat is applied to the eyelids, which helps to liquify and release the oils that have become too thick or solidified within the meibomian glands.
These oils are crucial for maintaining a healthy tear film and preventing the evaporation of tears from the surface of the eye.
The process involves using specialized devices that deliver a controlled amount of heat directly to the eyelids. This heat application is typically followed by a massage or expression technique performed by an eye care professional to help expel the liquified oils from the glands.
By clearing the blockage and allowing the oil to flow more freely, this treatment helps to stabilize the tear film, reduce evaporation of tears, and alleviate the symptoms of dry eye. Regular treatments may be necessary to maintain the improved function of the meibomian glands
Our ULTIMATE GOAL is to get you to produce your own tears and get you off a lifetime of drops.

Importance of Dry Eye Management
Dry eye treatment is essential for several reasons as dry eye syndrome can significantly impact a person’s quality of life and eye health.
Here are three reasons why dry eye treatment is important:
1. Alleviating Discomfort: Dry eye syndrome can cause symptoms such as dryness, burning, itching, redness, and a gritty sensation in the eyes. These symptoms can be quite uncomfortable and affect daily activities, including reading, using digital devices, and driving. By undergoing dry eye treatment, patients can find relief from these bothersome symptoms, improving their comfort and overall well-being.
2. Preventing Complications: Untreated or poorly managed dry eye can lead to potential complications. The chronic inflammation and irritation of the ocular surface can damage the cornea and other structures of the eye, potentially increasing the risk of infections, corneal ulcers, and vision problems. Early and appropriate dry eye treatment can help prevent these complications and maintain the health of the eyes.
3. Improving Visual Function: Dry eye can adversely affect visual acuity and clarity, particularly during activities that require focused vision for extended periods. Proper dry eye treatment can enhance visual function and reduce fluctuations in vision, making it easier for patients to perform tasks that demand clear and comfortable vision.
