Get Relief from Itchy, Dry Eyes
Give Your Eyes the Care & Comfort They Deserve
No one should have to live with uncomfortable, dry, itchy eyes. From redness and irritation to trouble focusing and a higher risk of eye disease, dry eye is unpleasant and can make it hard to go about your day. With our experts at the helm, you’ll find relief thanks to our tailored, multipronged approach!
What is Dry Eye Disease?
Dry eye disease is when the eyes either don’t produce enough tears or they produce low-quality tears. Low-quality tears are when the oil, mucus, and water ratio isn’t optimal for your eyes to lubricate themselves. We use precise diagnostics to determine the root cause of your dry eye syndrome so we can personalize a treatment plan for your needs.
Why is it Important to Diagnose and Treat Dry Eye Early?
It’s important to treat and diagnose dry eye disease as soon as you know you have it to prevent it from becoming severe. This is not only incredibly uncomfortable, it can even damage your eyes! It can cause atrophy and the eventual loss of functioning of your meibomian glands, which produce the oils that keep your eyes lubricated. Untreated dry eye disease can also make you more prone to corneal injuries and infections, aside from the hindrances it causes daily. Treating dry eye as soon as possible is the best way to keep your eyes healthy and your life easy.
Symptoms of Dry Eye
Symptoms of dry eye disease include red-looking, itchy, scratchy, dried out, and sensitive to light eyes. You may find yourself struggling to focus or wanting to scratch at your eyes. In some cases, you may notice crustiness and debris produced by your eyes.
Causes & Risk Factors
Environmental and genetic factors can cause dry eye disease. Screen use and intense focusing without blinking can cause dry eye disease as well. Eating a poor diet that lacks healthy fats and proper ratios of fats, as well as certain nutrients can increase the risk of dry eye disease.

We are fully equipped with world-class diagnostic technology. In the hands of our optometrists, we use our technology to get to the root cause of your dry eye disease and solve the problem as comprehensively as possible.

Our Dry Eye Treatments / Solutions
We have several dry eye treatments that can be used with one another. Our optometrists will craft a treatment plan based on your case specifics, helping you find lasting relief.
Intense Pulsed Light
Intense pulsed light (IPL) is a light therapy that minimizes inflammation while unblocking the meibomian glands. It improves cell turnover and clears problematic veins for healthier, well-lubricated eyes.
Forma-I
InMode Forma-I is a non-invasive radiofrequency device that can be utilized to treat dry eye by stimulating collagen production in the meibomian glands, which helps improve their function and enhance lipid production.
Prescriptions
Prescriptions, wholly medical and nutraceutical, can help improve tear production and quality. Prescriptions are typically used for patients with more severe cases of dry eye.
