Dry eye is a condition in which there are insufficient tears to lubricate and nourish the eye. Tears are necessary for maintaining the health of the front surface of the eye and for providing clear vision. People with dry eyes either do not produce enough tears or have a poor quality of tears. Dry eye is a common and often chronic problem, particularly in older adults. Dry eye can be caused by several factors such as contact lenses, environment, inflammation, allergy, insufficient nutrition, improper lid closures, etc…
Our team of doctors at Optima Optometry will help diagnose the correct cause of your dry eye and give appropriate treatment to alleviate your symptoms and improve quality of vision.
