Dry Eye Syndrome Treatment in Coral Springs, FL

What is Dry Eye Syndrome?

Dry eye syndrome occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to chronic discomfort, blurred vision, and an increased risk of eye infections.

Common Causes of Dry Eye:

Aging:

Tear production decreases with age

Screen Use:

Reduced blinking while using computers and phones

Environmental Factors:

Wind, smoke, air conditioning, and dry climates

“I ensure everyone gets the time they need in my office — no matter what.”

Symptoms of Dry Eye

Many patients dismiss dry eye symptoms as minor irritation, but without treatment, the condition can worsen.

Signs You May Have Dry Eye Syndrome:

Burning, stinging, or scratchy sensation in the eyes
Excessive tearing (a reflex response to irritation)
Redness or a feeling of something stuck in your eye
Blurry vision that improves with blinking
Light sensitivity and difficulty wearing contact lenses

If left untreated, chronic dry eye can lead to corneal damage and an increased risk of eye infections.

Dry Eye Treatment Options

The severity of symptoms and underlying cause determine dry eye treatment. Our solutions range from simple lifestyle modifications to advanced in-office procedures.

Artificial Tears & Prescription Eye Drops

Lubricating eye drops or artificial tears can relieve mild dry eyes. We may prescribe anti-inflammatory eye drops for more severe cases to improve tear production and reduce irritation.

Punctal Plugs for Tear Retention

Punctal plugs are tiny, biocompatible devices inserted into the tear ducts to slow tear drainage, keeping the eyes hydrated for longer. This minimally invasive, painless procedure is an excellent option for chronic dry eye sufferers.

Meibomian Gland Expression for Oil Deficiency

Blocked meibomian glands prevent the release of essential oils needed to stabilize the tear film. We use a gentle, in-office procedure called meibomian gland expression to unblock these glands, restoring healthy tear production.

Lifestyle & Nutritional Recommendations

Simple daily changes can significantly reduce dry eye symptoms. We provide:

Blinking exercises to reduce eye strain from digital screens
Omega-3 supplements to improve tear quality
Humidifier recommendations to reduce environmental dryness
