Dry Eye Symptoms and Treatment
Dry eye syndrome (DES) is a common condition that occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly. This can cause a number of symptoms, including:
- Irritation: Dry eyes can feel irritated, scratchy, or burning.
- Redness: The eyes may appear red or bloodshot.
- Watery eyes: The eyes may produce excessive tears, especially in response to wind or bright light.
- Blurred vision: Dry eyes can make it difficult to focus, especially when reading or using a computer.
- Sensation of something in the eye: You may feel like there is something in your eye, even though there is not.
- Tired eyes: Dry eyes can make your eyes feel tired and fatigued.
Dry Eye Syndromes can be caused by a number of factors, including:
- Age
- Medications
- Medical conditions
- Environmental factors
- Contact lenses
If you are experiencing any of the symptoms of dry eye syndrome, it is important to schedule a consultation with our dry eye specialists to find the right treatment for you.
Eye Exams in Houston
Yearly eye exams are important for the overall health of your vision and can help with early detection of potentially serious conditions.
- Detecting vision problems: Eye exams can detect vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. These problems can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, or surgery.
- Identifying eye diseases: Eye exams can also identify eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. These diseases can lead to vision loss if they are not treated early.
- Monitoring eye health: Eye exams can monitor your eye health over time and detect any changes that may occur. This is important because some eye diseases, such as glaucoma, have no early symptoms.
- Screening for other health problems: Eye exams can also screen for other health problems, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. These problems can sometimes be detected by changes in the blood vessels in the retina.
