A proper eye care strategy for managing dry eye syndrome should involve a combination of  medication and gentle treatment to ensure the best results.

• Lipiflow is an effective medication that specifically addresses Meibomian gland dysfunction.

• Artificial tears are especially helpful if you’re seeking immediate relief from the discomfort caused by dry eye syndrome. 

• Warm Compresses can stimulate tear via warmth and gentle heat to aid tear production in your eyes and alleviate your symptoms.

• Low level laser therapy and red/blue masks can help alleviate your symptoms. LLLT uses specially designed LED lights to gently warm up the eyelids, causing the meibomian glands to unclog and release oils needed to keep eyes healthy, moisturized and comfortable.
