  • Excessive tearing

  • Light sensitivity

  • Burning or stinging

Causes of Dry Eye

Tear Film Imbalance

Your tear film has 3 essential layers:

  • Oil (lipid): Prevents evaporation

  • Water (aqueous): Hydrates the eye

  • Mucus (mucin): Spreads tears evenly


When any of these layers are disrupted, dry eye symptoms can develop.

Common Contributing Factors

  • Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)

  • Long-term contact lens use

  • Certain medications

  • Vitamin A deficiency

  • Blepharitis

  • Environmental triggers like dry air or wind

OptiLIGHT by Lumenis (IPL Therapy)

OptiLIGHT is the first and only FDA-approved IPL (intense pulsed light) treatment for dry eye. It’s noninvasive, gentle, and effective.

How it works:

  • Targets inflammation around the eyes

  • Improves oil gland performance

  • Enhances tear film stability

  • Helps reduce dry eye symptoms long-term


Treatment is typically done in a series of sessions and requires no downtime.

TearCare® Thermal Treatment

TearCare uses gentle heat and blinking exercises to help unclog your meibomian glands and restore natural tear production.

Benefits of TearCare include:

  • Quick, in-office treatment (about 15 minutes)

  • Flexible, comfortable eyelid devices

  • Targets evaporative dry eye caused by oil gland blockages


It’s a great option for patients looking for a non-invasive and highly effective treatment.

What is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD)?

MGD is one of the leading causes of dry eye. It happens when the oil glands in your eyelids get blocked or inflamed, reducing tear quality and causing your tears to evaporate too quickly.

Symptoms may include:

  • Burning or stinging

  • Grittiness

  • Eye fatigue

  • Blurry vision

How We Diagnose Dry Eye

In-Office Testing

We use advanced technology to pinpoint the cause of your symptoms and tailor the right treatment plan for you.

Diagnostic Tools

  • Meibography: Infrared images of your oil glands

  • Tear Breakup Time (TBUT): Measures how long your tears stay intact

  • InflammaDry: Detects inflammation markers

  • Oculus Keratograph 5M: Evaluates your tear film and ocular surface
