Relief for Dry Eyes

Dry Eye Center of Excellence at Central Ohio Eye & Plastic Surgery

Simply put, ocular surface disease is a chronic condition where your tears become dysfunctional. Our eyes need all three layers of the tear film to be balanced otherwise, we feel the effects of ocular surface inflammation and symptoms.

Unstable tears can be caused by various factors, including prolonged screen time, environmental conditions, aging, and certain medications. Common symptoms include:
  • Excessive tearing or persistent dryness
  • A dry, gritty sensation
  • Itchy eyelids
  • Stinging feeling
  • Redness
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Blurred or fluctuating vision
  • Eye fatigue
Our Dry Eye Center of Excellence provides comprehensive care with a patient-centered approach ensuring the best possible outcome.
