the root of dry, tired eyes.
Dry eyes can be uncomfortable and persistent, and the causes vary from person to person. An assessment looks at what is causing your discomfort, rather than reaching for a generic solution.
What to expect
If your eyes regularly feel gritty, tired, watery or sensitive to light, particularly after screen use or by the end of the day, a dry eye assessment can help identify why. We examine the tear film and eyelids, discuss your symptoms and daily habits, and build a management plan around your eyes rather than a one-size-fits-all starter kit.
