Patient acceptance

What is Dry Eye Syndrome? Dry Eye is a medical condition that affects millions of people in the United States. It affects tear production. There is either insufficient tear production or poor quality tears. The tear layer is composed mainly of 3 components: protein, 90% water and oil to cover and protect all layers from evaporation.

Symptoms of Dry Eyes. Symptoms of Dry Eyes include stinging, burning, itching, redness, irritation or discomfort. It may lead to blurry vision when working on the computer or reading and it may cause contact lens intolerance. Consequences of not treating Dry Eyes correctly may lead to chronic inflammation that may further decrease tear production creating a vicious cycle.
