Dry eye disease affects over 58% of the population and can progress from mild discomfort to a chronic condition that impacts daily activities. The condition stems from either insufficient tear production or poor tear quality, causing symptoms such as irritation, burning, itchiness, and blurred vision. Statistics indicate that approximately 11 million women (8.8%) and 5.3 million men (4.5%) experience this condition, with prevalence increasing significantly after age 34.
However, dry eye disease is a manageable condition with many treatments available. At Eyelines Opticians, treatment plans begin with a thorough assessment of eye health and lifestyle factors, with specific therapies selected based on the needs of each patient. Options range from preservative-free artificial tears and warm compresses to prescription medications and advanced therapies; for mild cases, the clinic recommends the former two, while moderate to severe cases might benefit from the latter.
Because environmental factors such as prolonged screen time, heating and cooling, and certain medications can contribute to dry eye symptoms, Eyelines Opticians will also offer guidance on managing these factors. Patients will receive advice on how to modify their lifestyle, empowering them to maintain their eye health between appointments.
Alongside its dry eye services, the clinic continues to offer its myopia control services for patients of all ages. These services help manage nearsightedness progression, which is particularly beneficial for younger patients, as early intervention in myopia can help reduce the risk of more serious eye conditions later in life.
