Sore, irritated, scratchy, watery, red eyes and blurred vision are all symptoms of dry eye. Diagnosing the cause is crucial for treatment so our optometrists will ask questions and use advanced imaging to prescribe appropriate evidence based treatment for your dry eye.
Dry eye is complex and multifactorial, so cause analysis enables management to be much more targeted and effective. We may provide advice on environmental exposures, lid hygiene strategies, or diet.
Therapeutic management can include generic drops for irritation or prescription medications, which can be provided by all our optometrists. Sometimes we may refer to your GP for blood tests and other evaluations to provide further insight.
