Book AppointmentMGD & Dry Eyes
Dry eye can occur when something goes wrong with your tear production process or the glands that produce these elements become inflamed. Your tears are made up of 3 layers:
- The oily outer layer
- The watery middle layer
- The inner mucus layer
Inflammation can also cause meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). MGD can reduce oil production, causing the water layer to evaporate and accelerating dryness.
Dry Eye Solutions
We offer different dry eye treatments that can help you find relief.
Punctal Plugs
Punctal plugs help manage dry eyes when your tears are draining from your eyes too quickly. Punctal plugs are tiny devices that are placed into your tear ducts to slow down how fast tears leave the surface of your eyes.
Punctal plugs typically come in temporary or dissolving and semi-permanent types.
Dry Eye Kits
Our dry eye kits include eye drops, vitamins, and lid wipes to help relieve dry eye symptoms. Our team can determine what treatment methods are ideal for your dry eye symptoms through a comprehensive eye exam.
