Dry Eye Disease
Overview
Dry Eye Disease is a common condition that occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when tears evaporate too quickly, resulting in inadequate lubrication of the eye's surface. It can cause burning, irritation, redness, watering, blurred vision, and eye fatigue, affecting daily activities such as reading, driving, or prolonged screen use.
At Nikol Eye Care & LASIK Centre, we provide comprehensive dry eye evaluation and personalized treatment using advanced diagnostic techniques and evidence-based therapies to relieve symptoms, improve tear quality, and restore long-term ocular comfort.
