If you're dealing with dry eye, you might have heard of punctal plugs. đź‘€
Punctal plugs are tiny devices inserted into the tear ducts (puncta) in your eyelids. They're like little stoppers that help block tears from draining out of your eyes too fast. This helps keep your eyes moist and comfy. The plugs are typically made from materials like silicone or collagen, catering to different needs and durations of treatment.
Common symptoms of dry eye include a scratchy feeling (like there is something in your eye), stinging or burning feelings in your eye, red eyes, sensitivity to light, fluctuating vision, and watery eyes (watering is a common symptom of poor tear film quality).
