What is Dry Eye?

Dry eye disease is a condition as common as it is frustrating. There are two main causes of dry eye: when you don’t produce enough tears, or when your tears evaporate too quickly. These problems arise when your tears lack the right ratio of oil, mucus, and water. No matter what its cause is, dry eye results in bothersome symptoms. And if left unaddressed, it can also lead to damage and inflammation of the eye, which is both painful and impairs vision.

Our Dry Eye Treatment Solutions

You don’t need to settle for the hand dry eye has dealt you: we have options for you at Classic Vision Care. Using our LipiScan® imaging, we can get a clear picture of your eyelids’ oil-producing meibomian glands — whose clogging and infections often cause dry eye — and identify any issues with your tear quality. We offer a variety of dry eye solutions that we tailor to your case, cause, and needs, and work with you to get you back to healthy, hydrated eyes!

Eye Drops

Eye Drops

For instant relief from the effects of dry eye, we can select just the right eye drops for you. Depending on the cause and severity of your dry eye, as well as your specific symptoms, we’ll either prescribe medicated drops or curate over-the-counter recommendations that match your needs.

Intense Pulsed
Light (IPL)

Intense Pulsed
Light (IPL)

To treat meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), a common cause of dry eye that deprives your tears of oil, we offer a highly effective in-house option known as IPL. This procedure uses small bursts of light applied to your closed eyelids to warm and unclog your oil-producing meibomian glands, allowing your natural oils to flow into your tears once more.

MiboFlo

This advanced in-office procedure treats MGD with small heat-conducting pads placed over your closed eyes while you relax. This thermal energy helps loosen your eyelid meibomian glands, restoring oil to fortify your tears and keep your eyes moist.

BlephEx®

This in-office dry eye treatment targets eyelid inflammation known as blepharitis, which can cause dry eye. BlephEx® uses an innovative spinning micro-sponge to sweep over your eyelids and cleanse them, gently exfoliating away clogged oil and debris for healthier lids.

Punctal Plugs

Punctal Plugs

These microscopic devices are painlessly placed into your tear ducts by our expert doctors to alleviate dry eye caused by tears draining too quickly. With punctal plugs in place, your eyes will hold tears on the surface of your eye longer, keeping them better hydrated.

Scleral Lenses

Scleral Lenses

Scleral contact lenses benefit those with dry eye because they’re designed to vault over the front of the eye without making direct contact, instead resting on the whites of the eye, or sclera. This design creates a space between the lens and cornea that acts as a reservoir to lock in tears, lubricating the eyes.
