Dry Eye Clinic

Are You Experiencing Dry Eye Symptoms?

Dry eye is a common condition that occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or when the tears you have are not the right quality.

You may be experiencing dry eye symptoms if you have:

  • Burning or stinging
  • Redness
  • Irritation or scratchy feeling
  • Tired or heavy eyes
  • Watery eyes
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Grittiness, as if something is in your eye
  • Blurry or fluctuating vision

If any of these symptoms sound familiar, you may benefit from a comprehensive eye exam to determine the cause and the treatment that is right for you. Our team is here to help you find relief.

Your Dry Eye Disease Treatment Plan

Dry Eye Disease is different for every patient, which means there is not one treatment that is right for everyone.

During your comprehensive Dry Eye Disease evaluation, we will discuss your symptoms, identify the underlying cause, and create a personalized treatment plan for you. Your plan may include treatments such as warm compresses, eyelid hygiene, lubricating eye drops, prescription medications, or advanced in-office therapies like OptiLIFT™ and OptiLIGHT™.

Our goal is to help you achieve healthier, more comfortable eyes and lasting Dry Eye Disease relief.

OptiLIFT machine

OptiLIFT™

OptiLIFT is designed to address lower eyelid laxity and impaired blinking.

Healthy blinking is important because each blink helps spread the tear film across the surface of the eye.

OptiLIFT uses Dynamic Muscle Stimulation (DMS™) to gently stimulate the muscles beneath the lower eyelids. This treatment can help improve muscle tone and blinking efficiency.

OptiLIFT May Help:

  • Address lower eyelid laxity
  • Restore muscle tone around the lower eyelids
  • Improve blinking efficiency
  • Provide a gentle, non-surgical, in-office treatment option

OptiLIFT treatments are approximately 15 minutes. A typical treatment protocol consists of four sessions, generally spaced about two weeks apart.

OptiLIFT is indicated for temporary improvement in lower eyelid laxity and the appearance of periocular wrinkles. It is not intended to treat medical diseases or medical conditions.

OptiLIGHT machine

OptiLIGHT™

OptiLIGHT is a light-based IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) treatment used for the management of Dry Eye Disease due to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).

The treatment delivers controlled pulses of light to the area around the eyelids. OptiLIGHT is designed to help address inflammation associated with MGD and improve the function of the meibomian glands.

Benefits of OptiLIGHT May Include:

  • Helping reduce inflammation around the eyelids
  • Addressing abnormal blood vessels associated with inflammation
  • Improving meibomian gland function and oil flow
  • Improving tear breakup time
  • Helping decrease Demodex (mites) and bacteria around the eyelid margins

OptiLIGHT sessions take approximately 15 minutes, and the initial treatment series typically consists of four sessions.

OptiLIGHT is indicated for the management of Dry Eye Disease (DED) due to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).
