WHAT IS DRY EYE DISEASE?
Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a group of conditions affecting all age groups, caused by insufficient volume and/or quality of tears to keep the surface well lubricated, causing severe discomfort.
Common symptoms include grittiness and burning sensation in the eyes, sensitivity to light, redness, watering and headache. Treatment for dry eyes makes the patient more comfortable, improving their quality of life.
When to seek help?
The tear film and its components are formed by several structures in the eye. If any of these structures are affected, the quantity and quality of the tear film is affected, causing dry eye disease. Dry Eye Disease can significantly impact your quality of life and interfere with basic day-to-day activities like reading, driving, cooking, etc. You may consult expert ophthalmologists at our Dry Eye Clinic if you suffer from:
- Grittiness and irritation in the eyes
- Inability to focus on objects for a long-time causing blurring of vision
- Watering and Redness
- Burning and Itching
