Who put that sandpaper on the inside of your eyelids? If your eyes regularly feel dry and irritated, there's a solution—and it's not just the constant use of eye drops. You may have dry eye disease. It's an issue with your tears that can be treated to relieve your symptoms. Book your eye exam and we'll create your custom plan for relief.

One of the ways we learn about your eyes is by testing your tear break-up time (also called TBUT). In this quick test, we observe how long it takes for your tears to evaporate off the surface of your eye. When it takes less than 10 seconds, that's considered a sign of dry eye disease. Dry eye is a chronic, but treatable, condition. Book your eye exam and let us find you relief from symptoms.
