Did you know men also suffer from dry eye?
Common causes of dry eye syndrome include — aging, hormonal changes, and diets low in omega-3 fatty acids. Environmental factors also play a huge role — low humidity or dry environments can accelerate tear evaporation. Pollution and allergens can lead to inflammation of the eyelids. Infrequent blinking or concentration can reduce the amount of oil released into the tear film.
Our patients who work in the airline industry have greatly benefited in treating their dry eye, or meibomian gland dysfunction, with IPL and heat therapy. Similarly — patients who drive for a living or use computers all day long have reported an improvement in their quality of life after dry eye treatment.
