Dry eye happens when your eyes don’t make enough tears to stay wet, your tears evaporate too quickly or don't work properly. This can make your eyes feel uncomfortable, and in some cases it can also cause vision problems. Dry eye is common — it affects millions of Americans every year. The good news is that if you have dry eye there are lots of things you can do to keep your eyes healthy and stay comfortable. After a thorough evaluation of the surface of your eye our optometrist will advise an individualized treatment plan for you.

If you've been diagnosed with diabetes, your primary care doctor has likely recommended close monitoring of your eyes. This is because eye disease related to diabetes is the number one cause of vision loss in working-aged adults. High blood sugar can affect every part of the eye, but the most common changes we see are in the retina. During a diabetic eye exam we use multiple methods to look for tiny bleeds and other vision threatening blood vessel changes.  

Glaucoma is a silent eye disease. It is a condition in which your optic nerve is damaged, typically due to gradual eye pressure increases, leading to permanent vision loss. You typically won't feel glaucoma or notice the subtle vision loss until damage is extensive. If we are suspicious that you may be at risk to develop this disease, we would schedule you for further testing. This testing includes checking the thickness of your corneas, double checking your eye pressure, examining the open of your drainage angles, checking your optic nerve thickness, and measuring any amount of vision loss. If we ever found changes, eye drops would typically be prescribed to control the eye pressure and monitor for change over time.

Macular degeneration is the breakdown of the area of the retina responsible for your fine, detailed central sight. This is typically a disease related to aging, but it also has many lifestyle risk factors. If we ever detected changes in your macula, we would perform a light ultrasound of that part of the eye, and follow up on a more frequent basis to watch for vision threatening complications. Supplements may be prescribed as well as discussion about a lifestyle and diet.
