Dry eyes are a common issue for many of our patients. Additionally, excessively dry eyes can lead to more serious eye conditions, so getting treatment for dry eyes is important. Visit Eye Care Associates in Optometry in New York, NY, and find out what Dr. Lawrence Forgas, O.D. can do for you.

Eye Exam Is a Typical Part of Eye Care

There are many services that we provide at our practice. However, as our optometrist would tell you, an eye exam is usually the starting point for any eye care we provide. Dr. Forgas needs to examine your eyes to figure out how to give you the treatment you require. This exam usually includes a vision exam to further analyze the condition of your eyes. Our office is a great place to get high-quality eye care.

What Is Dry Eye Syndrome?

Before discussing treatment options, it is critical to define dry eye syndrome. Dry eye disease is common, and it occurs when your tears cannot lubricate your eyes sufficiently. Dry eyes can lead to other symptoms, such as the surface of your eyes getting damaged and inflammation. As you know, if you have dry eyes, you will certainly feel uncomfortable.

Dry eyes can cause your eyes to burn and sting. Some situations, like riding a bike or traveling on an airplane, can make you experience dry eyes. Thankfully, our optometrist can provide you with effective dry eye treatment.

How Do We Treat Dry Eyes?

We can treat dry eyes numerous ways. One of the treatments we use for dry eyes is medicated eye drops. Medicated eye drops can help greatly with dry eyes, as long as you use them as instructed. Additionally, we might also advocate for some lifestyle changes.

If you spend a lot of time looking at computer screens, you might need to take more frequent breaks. Staring at computer screens is one of the most common causes of dry eyes these days. In any case, our eye doctor will discuss our treatment options with you. Dr. Forgas has plenty of experience treating patients with dry eyes.
