Dry Eye Disease is a common eye condition that occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when tears evaporate too quickly. It can affect people of all ages and is becoming increasingly common due to prolonged screen use, air-conditioned environments, aging, and certain medical conditions.
Common symptoms include dryness, burning, stinging, redness, itching, a gritty or sandy sensation, excessive watering, eye fatigue, fluctuating vision, and sensitivity to light. Many patients experience discomfort while reading, driving, or working on computers for long periods.
At Focus Eye Clinic, Thane, Dr. Mohini Modak provides comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment for Dry Eye Disease. Management may include lubricating eye drops, eyelid hygiene, warm compresses, dietary advice, and lifestyle modifications such as taking regular screen breaks and maintaining adequate hydration. Advanced treatments may be recommended for selected patients.
Early diagnosis and proper treatment can significantly improve comfort, protect the eye surface, and enhance overall quality of life.
