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.

Who is a candidate for TearCare®?

TearCare® may be right for you if you experience any of the following symptoms:

  • Dry, itchy, or burning eyes

  • Feeling like something is in your eye (foreign body sensation)

  • Watery eyes

  • Blurred vision

  • Sensitivity to light

Don't let dry eyes hold you back any longer. Contact us today to learn more about TearCare® and how it can help you enjoy clear, comfortable vision again.
