WHAT IS DRY EYE DISEASE?

Dry Eye Disease is a condition that gradually alters and disrupts the natural balance of chemical and tissue composition in the eye, leading to significant functional changes in vision quality and patient comfort.

While dry eye disease is complex and can be described as a vicious, ongoing cycle, we've identified numerous potential causes that can initiate the cycle. If left unaddressed, it becomes increasingly difficult for patients to break out of the cycle.

Research has shown there is no cure for this condition, but through our work, we aim to manage symptoms as effectively as possible by preserving the integrity of the ocular structure. Our goal is to optimize patient comfort and vision quality, even in the absence of a permanent cure.

COMMON SYMPTOMS OF DRY EYE DISEASE

Patients rarely describe their eyes as feeling "dry". Instead, they're more likely to experience symptoms such as:

​

  • The sensation of having a foreign object or eyelash in the eye

  • Persistent redness

  • Burning or stinging eyes

  • Watery or tearing eyes

  • Vision fluctuations, particularly after blinking

  • Discomfort upon waking up in the morning

  • Difficulty wearing contact lenses or intolerance to them

  • Fatigue and soreness of the eyes

  • The feeling of not being able to keep their eyes open wide.
