Dry, irritated eyes can be more than a nuisance. They can make it harder to focus at work, enjoy time with family, or get through the day comfortably.
Whether you've struggled with symptoms for years or are just starting to notice changes, our team is here to help you find answers and feel better.
Dry eye occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or when the tears you do make don’t protect the surface of your eyes properly. It’s more than occasional dryness; it’s a condition that can affect your quality of life and may require ongoing eye condition treatment to manage symptoms and protect long-term eye health.
Left untreated, dry eye can cause discomfort, blurred vision, and even damage to the eye’s surface. Contributing factors may include aging, screen time, hormonal changes, medical conditions, or certain medications.
Patients often describe dry eye symptoms as:
Stinging or burning
Gritty or sandy sensation
Blurry or fluctuating vision
Eye fatigue
Excessive tearing
Sensitivity to light
If you’ve tried over-the-counter drops without long-term relief, it’s time to get evaluated.
We start by listening. We’ll talk through your symptoms, health history, and daily habits before examining your tear film, eyelids, and eye surface using advanced diagnostics. Our goal is to find the underlying cause of your symptoms so we can treat them effectively.
Your treatment plan may include:
Prescription eye drops or ointments
In-office therapies like punctal plugs
Lid hygiene guidance
Lifestyle or screen-use recommendations
Nutritional support or omega-3 supplements
We also offer Forma RF, a non-surgical radiofrequency treatment that improves eyelid function, supports tear stability, and can help relieve evaporative dry eye while offering cosmetic benefits.
In addition to in-office care, we often recommend at-home support tools and therapies from DryEye Rescue.
Dry eye can be frustrating, especially if you've tried multiple treatments without success. At Delran Eye Associates, we take the time to explain your diagnosis clearly and create a plan that addresses your specific needs.
We use advanced technology and a thoughtful approach to help you find long-term relief, not just a temporary fix. Our eye doctors are known for listening, educating, and helping you feel comfortable and in control of your eye care.
