- Epitheliopathy
- Meibomian gland evaluation
What is
Dry Eye?
Dry eye syndrome is a common condition where your eyes do not produce enough tears or the right quality of tears to keep them lubricated and comfortable. Factors such as aging, environmental conditions, medications, and underlying health issues can contribute to the condition.
Dry Eye Assessment
Conducting a comprehensive dry eye assessment enables our optometrist to identify the underlying causes of your symptoms and accurately diagnose the specific type of dry eye you have. Once the evaluation is complete, the optometrist can recommend the appropriate treatment for you.
Dry Eye Treatment
After your dry eye assessment at Yarra Junction Optical, we’ll develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Treatment may include prescription eye drops, in-practice therapies such as Blephasteam®, and lifestyle recommendations to help improve tear quality and reduce discomfort.
