TearCare
Dry eyes, a condition where your eyes don't produce enough quality tears to stay comfortable and healthy, can be more than just a nuisance.
It can disrupt your daily life, making simple tasks like reading, working on a computer, or even enjoying the outdoors challenging. If you've tried over-the-counter eye drops and other remedies with little success, it might be time to consider TearCare®.
What is TearCare®?
TearCare® is a revolutionary, FDA-cleared treatment designed to provide lasting relief from dry eye disease (DED) symptoms and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).
MGD is a common cause of DED, in which the glands in the eyelids become blocked, leading to a poor-quality tear film.
How does TearCare® Work?
TearCare® uses gentle, controlled heat and light pressure to unclog and stimulate the meibomian glands. This helps restore the natural flow of oils essential for maintaining a healthy tear film. The treatment in our office typically takes about 15 minutes per eye.
Benefits of TearCare®:
-
Effective: Clinical studies have shown significant improvement in both signs and symptoms of dry eye disease after TearCare® treatment.
-
Safe & Comfortable: The procedure is well-tolerated; most patients experience minimal discomfort.
-
Long-lasting Relief: Unlike artificial tears that provide only temporary relief, TearCare® addresses the root cause of dry eye, leading to long-term improvement.
-
Convenient: The treatment can be completed in a single office visit, with most patients requiring only one or two treatments per year.
