Dry Eye Disease

Dry eye disease is an underdiagnosed disease that affects many patients. Many think dry eye is normal due to age and living in the Central Valley. It is NOT!

Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD)

MGD is the leading cause of dry eye disease. Studies show that 80% of dry eye is due to MGD and causes symptoms like dryness, grittiness, burning, stinging, excessive tearing, redness, light sensitivity, contact lens discomfort, and intermittent blurred vision.

The worst part is MGD is progressive so it will continue to worsen if not treated properly. Using eye drops isn’t enough! Severe MGD can lead to reduced quality of life so it is best to diagnose and treat it before it worsens.
