Tears are vital to the longevity of eye health and providing clear vision. The lack of good quality tears to nourish and lubricate the eye is a condition called Dry Eye, which is becoming a more common and chronic issue. According to a recent study by the American Journal of Ophthalmology, 5.28% of Americans suffer from Dry Eye, and that number is expected to increase in the coming years. That’s over 17 million people with burning, itchy eyes who are looking for long term relief!

The Dry Eye Clinic was developed to provide lasting relief for chronic sufferers.

It’s important to diagnose Dry Eye early, as symptoms only worsen over time. The most common symptoms patients with Dry Eye notice are their eyes seeming heavy and dry. Other symptoms include:

  • Gritty or burning sensation
  • Episodes of blurry or fuzzy vision
  • Trouble focusing on everyday tasks
  • Light sensitivity
  • Eye discomfort that increases throughout the day
  • Discomfort when wearing contacts
  • Crusty or mucus discharge from eyes

Are you suffering from any of the symptoms listed? Now is the time to set up an appointment with Lifetime Vision.
