Dry Eye Therapy

Helping You Find Relief

Your eyes require care and attention to operate with comfort. Dry eye syndrome is a condition that can occur when your eyes aren’t producing enough tears to stay hydrated or something has gone wrong with the tear production process.

Dry eyes can damage your cornea if left untreated, so at Port Royal Eye Care, we are dedicated to helping you find relief.

How Dry Eye Syndrome Works

To understand dry eye syndrome, it’s important to dive into the tear production process. Your tears are comprised of 3 layers:

• The oily outer layer

• The watery middle layer

• The inner mucus layer
  
  

Dry eye syndrome can occur when the glands that produce these elements of your tears are not functioning properly or become inflamed.

The inflammation caused can also result in meibomian gland dysfunction. This process clogs the small glands in your eyelids that produce the oily layer of tears and cause instability in the tear film. Instability in the tear production process can lead to dry eye syndrome.

Some common signs and symptoms of dry eye syndrome can include:

• A stinging, burning, or scratchy feeling in your eyes

• Blurred vision or eye fatigue

• Eye redness

• Watery eyes
