Our Treatments for Dry Eye in Murray, KY

Eyelid Wipes & Cleansers

Because dry eye so often involves the eyelids, the solution almost always includes keeping the eyelid hygienic and healthy. We recommend all-natural cleaners like Eye Eco™ facial products to ensure your eyelids are clear of irritants, bacteria, and anything else that may clog the meibomian glands.

Eye Health Supplements

Dry eye can result from many deficiencies: water is the most obvious, but many patients lack crucial nutrients like vitamin A that sustain eye health and tear quality. By taking the eye health supplements advised by your eye doctor, you can get the precise nutrients your body has been lacking until now.

Specialized Contacts

While standard contacts can make some dry eye cases worse, some specialized contacts actually treat this frustrating condition. For instance, scleral lenses vault completely over the cornea, trapping tears against it to help keep the eye hydrated, and RGP lenses provide more oxygen to the cornea.

Amniotic Membranes

For severe dry eye, we may recommend amniotic membranes. Clear disks of tissue are placed over the eye like a lens to provide a healing and protective benefit before being absorbed. It restores the protective surface of the eye that may have been damaged by inadequate lubrication.

PUNCTAL
PLUGS

Punctal plugs are miniscule devices that are placed in the tear ducts, or “puncta,” to prevent tears from draining too quickly. This safe, non-invasive procedure can be completed in a matter of minutes and provides long-lasting relief for most patients, making it a long-term treatment option.

IPL
Treatment

When eyelid glands stop producing oil for your tears, they evaporate too quickly causing Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Our Intense pulsed light, or IPL, is an exciting technology that delivers thermal energy to these glands to restore their function–and help your tears last.
