Dry Eye
What is DRY EYE?
Dry eye is a very common disease, with a prevalence of up to 75% in some groups. Left untreated, dry eye can progress and significantly affect the daily lives of millions. Meibomian gland disease (MGD) is the most common form of dry eye and has been shown to affect 86% of patients with dry eyes.
Dry eyes feel uncomfortable, causing eyes to sting or burn. Patients may experience dry eyes in certain situations, such as on airplane, in air-conditioned rooms, while riding bikes, or after looking at computer screens (or smartphone screens) for too long.
Causes of Dry Eye include:
- Age & Gender
- Poor Blinking
- Computer/Device Use
- Medications
- Contact Lens Wear
- Eye Surgery
- Climate and Environment
- Systemic Diseases
