Dry Eye Relief in Commerce, GA
What Is Dry Eye & Why Is It So Common?
Dry eye disease happens when your eyes can’t produce enough healthy tears or when your tear film evaporates too quickly to protect the surface of the eye. That can lead to all kinds of symptoms: gritty discomfort, watering, blurred vision, redness, irritation, or sensitivity to wind and light.
We help patients manage dry eye with straightforward solutions, whether it’s a daily issue, a seasonal flare-up, or caused by environmental conditions/changes.
Common Causes of Dry Eye We See at Our Clinic
- Long hours on screens (especially in kids and adults under 50)
- Hormonal changes (including during menopause)
- Aging and reduced tear production
- Certain medications
- Contact lens wear
- Autoimmune conditions
- Seasonal or environmental triggers
- History of LASIK or other surgeries
At Commerce Family Eyecare, we begin with a thorough exam, including tear evaluation, corneal imaging, and a review of your daily habits, environment, and symptoms, so we can figure out why your eyes feel this way before deciding what to do next.
