Dry Eye Treatments
Dry eye disease is a complex and chronic inflammatory condition that can lead to damage of the ocular surface and eyelids. This damage can impair your clarity, visual productivity, cause pain, discomfort and lead to aesthetic changes and early aging of the eyes and eyelids. Early intervention is crucial to your eye health and quality of life.
The symptoms of Dry Eye Disease (DED) can be a problem for all ages, but it is more common as we get older. It occurs when your tears are not sufficient to keep the front surface of the eye, your cornea, well lubricated. The cornea needs constant lubrication by tears to stay healthy.
