As an eye doctor, I see firsthand how common and disruptive dry eye can be. It’s more than just occasional irritation—when left untreated, it can affect your vision and, in more severe cases, damage the surface of the eye.
July is Dry Eye Awareness Month, and it’s a great reminder to check in with your eye health. If you’ve been experiencing symptoms like burning, itchiness, a gritty feeling, or watery eyes, it could be dry eye disease. These symptoms are often overlooked or dismissed, but they can worsen over time without the right care.
I always tell my patients: don’t wait until it becomes a daily struggle. There are many treatment options available—from artificial tears to in-office procedures—that can bring real relief.
If you have questions or think you might be dealing with dry eye, I encourage you to book an appointment. Early detection makes a big difference.
