What Is Dry Eye?

Dry eye, or dry eye disease, is a common condition when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or the quality of your tears is poor. It can be caused by multiple factors, such as aging, medical conditions, meibomian gland dysfunction, dry climates, or too much screen time.

Recognizing these symptoms early on is crucial, and that’s where we step in. We’re here to help you navigate the symptoms and causes to find genuine relief.

How Can Dryness Affect Your Vision?

Dry eyes can cause a range of symptoms. Even when your eyes get watery, it may be a sign that your tears are trying to compensate for the lack of quality by producing more tears.

Other common symptoms include:

  • Scratchy, gritty, or stinging sensations
  • Fluctuating blurred vision
  • Feeling like there’s something foreign in your eye
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Watery or weeping eyes

When left untreated, moderate to severe dryness can damage or scar the surface of your eyes, which can permanently impair your vision. The lack of moisture can also make contact lenses wear uncomfortable.

Our Comprehensive Approach for Dry Eyes

We believe in a comprehensive approach to treating dry eye at Waverley Eye Center. We don’t just address the symptoms—we strive to get to the root of the problem. 

Our dedicated team takes the time to listen to your needs, understand your lifestyle, and personalize a treatment plan that works for you. You may benefit from prescription eye drops, home therapies like warm compresses, or even treatments in our office. Our goal is to help you achieve sustained, meaningful relief. 

We’re passionate about delivering personalized care because we know every eye is unique, just like you.

Our Dry Eye
Treatment Technology

We’re always excited to introduce patients to technology that could change their lives.

We proudly offer INMODE Lumecca IPL and INMODE Forma RF for dry eye therapy and skin rejuvenation. 

These noninvasive treatments focus on one common underlying cause of dry eye: meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). By treating the meibomian glands (oil glands) in the eyelids, the INMODE energy-based technologies could help relieve symptoms and provide longer-lasting comfort

INMODE Lumecca Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy

The INMODE Lumecca uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to target the delicate skin around your eyes. As your cells soak up the energy, it turns into heat, gently encouraging the production of tears. The process aims to unclog blocked oil glands in your eyelids, allowing oils to flow back into your eyes to reduce dryness and inflammation. 

IPL can also rejuvenate your skin. The gentle heat it emits helps renew collagen production, reducing skin redness, diminishing wrinkles, and restoring an even skin tone.

The INMODE Forma leverages radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein that helps control inflammation and repair tissue. 

When used for dry eye therapy, RF energy can help decrease inflammation and melt clogged oils trapped in the meibomian glands.

Forma RF technology can also work wonders as a skin-tightening treatment. Collagen is what gives our skin cells their strength and firmness. RF therapy can help refresh skin firmness and radiance by stimulating cell turnover.
