What Is Dry Eye?

Simply stated, dry eye syndrome occurs if the eye does not produce enough tears to keep them moist and wash out dust and debris. Tears also contain enzymes, in some cases the tears may just evaporate too quickly to be effective.

If you have symptoms of dry eye syndrome, call your eye care specialist for an appointment right away. Symptoms alone may be enough for your doctor to make a diagnosis, but he or she may want to measure the amount of tears in your eyes.
A thin strip of filter paper is placed at the edge of the eye, called a Schirmer test, is one way of measuring this.

Dry eye syndrome is an ongoing condition that may not be cured, but the accompanying symptoms can be managed. Your eye doctor may prescribe artificial tears or eye drops, and temporary or permanent silicone plugs may also be needed to keep your tears from draining away too quickly.

I continue to be impressed by Snead Eye Group! My initial visit was an emergency and the staff scheduled me immediately. The second visit was a re-check, and it was quick and efficient. My third visit was an eye exam. The technician modified her exam to meet the needs of my sensitive eyes. This is a group of hardworking and caring individuals!

This was the best experience I have ever had at an eye appointment! The staff is super caring and listens. The doctor was great and thorough. The selection of frames was great and the consultant, Heather, was knowledgeable and not pushy. I would highly recommend!

From my first appointment, Snead Eye Group had a very pleasant office and was so professional! I was worried because my doctors were all from Connecticut, and they were all excellent. But I hit the jackpot with the Snead Eye Group. They are extremely knowledgeable and up to date on their education to be beyond current! They get 10 stars from my husband and myself!
