When to visit us for dry eye Treatment
It is important to be able to distinguish the difference between a minor case of dry eyes and a more serious condition. Since people are all prone to having dry eyes at one point or another, there is a chance that it
is a minor case. However, there are many cases of dry eyes that start out small and become worse over time.
Subsequently, any case that results in an inability to focus and function normally throughout the day or that last for more than a week likely requires professional treatment. Patients need to visit us if they begin
to experience:
Severe burning of the eyesSensitivity to lightInability to wear contactsTrouble functioning at workBlurry or double visionIn some instances, dry eyes are a symptom of a more serious underlying issue that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. It is important to take eye care seriously and notify us when symptoms continue to persist.
While people may be tempted to wait out the condition with store-bought eye drops or other products, they may be investing in the wrong brand.
Instead of wasting money, unsure if the specific product will actually treat the issue, we can help patients find the correct treatment they need.
