Dry eye syndrome arises when the eyes do not produce an adequate quantity of tears or the tears evaporate too swiftly, resulting in discomfort and blurred vision. This condition is often chronic and, if not addressed, may adversely affect daily comfort and overall eye health.
The timely identification of dry eye syndrome is crucial in mitigating persistent irritation, blurred vision, and potential long-term damage to the eyes. Our personalised eye examinations enable us to detect concerns before they escalate, thereby allowing the formulation of a tailored treatment plan designed to ensure enduring comfort and enhanced ocular health over time.
Individuals presenting with dry eye syndrome often report one or more of the following symptoms:
Gritty or burning sensations in the eyes
Redness and irritation
Blurred vision, particularly after prolonged screen exposure
Increased sensitivity to light
Excessive tearing as a reflexive response to dryness
Our advanced diagnostic assessments are efficient, non-invasive, and provide an in-depth evaluation of tear film dynamics and ocular surface health:
This test measures the rapidity of tear evaporation from the ocular surface.
This assessment evaluates the glands responsible for producing the oil component of tears, which is vital for maintaining tear stability.
This analysis looks into the composition of tears to identify the underlying causes of dryness.
These evaluations, in conjunction with a comprehensive clinical history, inform the development of the most effective treatment strategy.
We customise treatment plans to address both symptoms and underlying causes, intending to provide long-lasting relief and restore ocular health. Our consultants will recommend an appropriate course of action, which may include:
These provide immediate alleviation of dryness and burning sensations throughout the day.
Prescription anti-inflammatory drops can diminish irritation, enhance tear quality, and stimulate natural tear production.
These are small inserts placed in the tear ducts to retain natural tears longer, thus minimising the necessity for frequent application of drops.
Routine cleaning and treatment for lid conditions can enhance oil secretion, stabilise the tear film, and decrease evaporation.
We offer cutting-edge thermal pulsation and light-based therapies that specifically target meibomian gland dysfunction, thereby restoring natural lubrication and tear stability.
