Service FAQs
Answer: While dry eye syndrome is a very common condition, leaving it untreated can lead to serious ocular complications. Chronic dryness often causes persistent inflammation, which may result in corneal scarring or permanent vision impairment over time. Our advanced therapy focuses on restoring the natural balance of your tear film to prevent these long-term risks. Early diagnosis and consistent care are essential to maintaining your overall eye health.
Answer: The duration of dry eye therapy varies depending on the severity of your symptoms and the specific treatment method used. Specialized procedures like LipiFlow typically take about twelve minutes per eye and provide relief for many months. However, managing chronic dry eye is often an ongoing process that requires consistent home care and periodic clinical visits. Most patients begin to feel a significant improvement within a few weeks of care.
Answer: Yes, long-term contact lens wear is a frequent contributing factor to dry eye symptoms. Lenses can disrupt the delicate tear film and reduce oxygen flow to the cornea, leading to irritation and dryness. During your consultation, we evaluate your lens usage and may recommend specialized moisture-retaining materials or temporary breaks from wear. Our goal is to optimize your ocular surface so you can enjoy comfortable vision with or without lenses.
Answer: Dry eye is often a chronic condition, meaning that while we can achieve significant relief, ongoing maintenance is usually required. Modern treatments like thermal pulsation can provide long-lasting results by restoring gland function, but environmental factors and aging will continue to affect your eyes. By following our personalized aftercare protocols and lifestyle advice, you can effectively manage the condition and enjoy lasting daily comfort.
Answer: Coverage for dry eye therapy depends entirely on your specific insurance provider and the type of treatment prescribed. Basic diagnostic examinations and certain medical prescriptions are typically covered under standard vision or medical plans. However, advanced elective procedures like LipiFlow might require out-of-pocket payment. Our administrative team will provide a detailed cost breakdown and assist you in verifying your benefits beforehand.
