Ask Our Eye Doctors a Question...

What are the typical treatments used to help people suffering from Dry Eyes?

Treatment for dry eye varies due to the severity and stage of the disease. Artificial tears can be helpful in the early stages. If artificial tears are not sufficient, we progress to a prescription medication such as Restasis or Xiidra. Also, lid hygiene as well as omega-3 fish oil supplementation can improve symptoms. Anti-inflammatory medications as well as punctal plugs are also available if needed for treatment.

How do I know if I have Dry Eye?

We carry one of the most advanced tear testing tools called TearLab to asses tear film osmolarity. Once one of our eye doctors diagnosis your case of dry eye, we may utilize punctal occlusion or dry eye medications such as Cequa or Xiidra. In severe cases of dry eye, we may utilize a more aggressive approach to treat the dryness and possibly the cornea through an amniotic disc.
