Understanding Your Dry Eye Journey: The What, Why, and How of Dry Eye Disease

Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a common yet often undiagnosed condition that impacts millions of individuals worldwide. It hinders the harmony between your tear film and ocular surface, causing discomfort, redness, and potentially, vision impairment.

Prevalence: A Closer Look at the Numbers

DED affects people of all ages, races, and genders, though it tends to be more common in older adults and women. Its prevalence escalates with age. Recognizing its widespread impact, we emphasize regular eye examinations for early detection and effective management

Identifying the Culprit: How We Diagnose DED

To accurately diagnose DED, we delve into your history, symptoms, and clinical presentation. We examine for systemic conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, which can contribute to DED, and also assess for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), another common cause

Probing Deeper: Our Investigations Into Your Dry Eye Condition

Our investigations involve:

  • Tear Film Break-up Time (TBUT)
  • Tear Lake Assessment
  • Signs of Blepharitis
  • Schirmer’s Test

These comprehensive assessments guide us towards the most suitable treatment for your DED.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Symptoms of DED can include dryness, grittiness, a burning sensation, redness, and sometimes excess watering of the eyes.

The frequency of follow-ups depends on the severity of your DED. It could range from every 2-3 weeks for severe cases to every 3-6 months for mild cases.

Regular breaks from digital screens, staying hydrated, using humidifiers in dry environments, maintaining a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, regular exercise, and quitting smoking can all help manage DED.

While DED is typically a chronic condition, it can be effectively managed with appropriate treatment and lifestyle modifications. Our aim is to alleviate your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

If left untreated, severe DED can potentially cause damage to the eye’s surface, leading to vision problems. Regular check-ups and early treatment are vital to prevent such complications.

While some patients with DED may find contact lenses uncomfortable, specific types of lenses like scleral contact lenses can actually aid in DED management by providing constant moisture to the cornea.

  • MGD is a common cause of DED. It occurs when the meibomian glands in the eyelids don’t secrete enough oil into the tears, causing them to evaporate too quickly. Treatments for MGD often help alleviate DED symptoms.
