DRY EYE EVALUATION, MANAGEMENT AND TREATMENT

Dry Eye Evaluation:

 Dry eyes is a condition that particularly affects older women. It results from abnormalities in the production or quality of tears, leading to dryness of the eye's surface, cornea, and conjunctiva.


Tears, or tear film, are produced by the tear glands and consist of water, mineral salts, proteins, and fats. They function to lubricate, clean, and protect the eye from foreign substances and microorganisms.


Dry Eye Disease can impact both comfort and vision, affecting daily activities and schoolwork performance for both you and your children.

Causes

 Among the causes of dry eye syndrome, the following stand out:

  • Reduced function of the lacrimal glands and loss of the aqueous component of tears as a result of ageing, systemic and autoimmune diseases (Sjögren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, etc.), the use of certain medications, including antidepressants, anti-allergics, beta blockers;
  • Excessive evaporation caused by environmental factors (air conditioning, wind, hot and dry weather, smoke, etc.);
  • Abnormalities in the eyelids.
