Dry Eye Evaluation and Treatment
What is Dry Eye
Dry eye is a common condition that occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears or when the quality of the tears is inadequate to keep the surface of the eyes properly lubricated. This can lead to discomfort, irritation, redness, and reduced vision quality. Causes of dry eye can range from environmental factors, such as prolonged screen exposure or dry climates, to underlying health conditions or age-related changes in tear production.
Symptoms of Dry Eye
Dry eye can cause various uncomfortable symptoms. People experiencing dry eyes often report a stinging or burning sensation, as well as a persistent feeling of grittiness. Other symptoms may include redness, sensitivity to light, or excessive tearing of the eyes.
