Reclaim Vision Comfort and Clarity

Many people struggle with dry eye symptoms that hinder them from reaching their full potential. Don’t let dry eyes prevent you from seeing clearly and comfortably.

Dry eye symptoms can be more than just a minor inconvenience. They can impact your daily life, making it difficult to focus on work, enjoy your favorite activities, or simply relax. Imagine constantly battling the sensation of dryness, grittiness, or irritation in your eyes or dealing with redness and discomfort that affects your confidence.

Why Choose Dry Eye Treatment?

Even daily activities like reading or using digital screens can become a challenge when your vision is blurred or your eyes are overly sensitive to light.

The constant discomfort and distraction caused by these symptoms can lower your productivity and overall quality of life. That said, there's hope! Tailored dry eye treatment can bring swift and long-lasting relief, improving your eye health and quality of life.


Exploring Dry Eye Treatments:

Finding the most suitable treatment for dry eyes is essential for lasting relief and optimal eye health. Let's explore a few effective options to help you regain comfort and clarity in your vision.

  • Comfort and Clarity with Specialized Contact Lenses

    Contact lenses have emerged as a popular choice for dry eye sufferers. Specifically designed soft contact lenses can help maintain a stable tear film, reducing friction between the eyelids and the cornea.

    Contact lenses for dry eyes retain moisture and provide ongoing hydration, offering comfort and improving vision. They are a convenient option that can significantly alleviate dry eye symptoms.

  • Instant Relief with Lubricating Eye Drops

    One of the most straightforward and accessible solutions for dry eye is using artificial tears and lubricating eye drops, available over the counter. Adding moisture to the eyes, these products offer temporary relief and comfort whenever needed.

    In severe cases, prescription atropine eye drops may be recommended by an eye doctor to provide targeted relief for your dry eye condition.

  • Non-Invasive IPL Therapy for Chronic Dry Eyes

    Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment is another effective solution for chronic dry eyes. This non-invasive procedure uses precisely calibrated light pulses to target and reduce inflammation and eliminate demodex in and around the meibomian glands. These glands are responsible for producing the oil layer of the tear film. IPL therapy can improve the quantity and quality of tears, offering long-term relief. IPL therapy is an appealing option for those seeking a non-surgical approach.

  • Innovative Radiofrequency Treatment for Lasting Relief

    Radiofrequency treatment is another cutting-edge option for effectively managing dry eyes. This procedure involves the application of radiofrequency energy to the meibomian glands, stimulating oil production and enhancing tear stability.

    Radiofrequency treatment offers lasting relief from dry eye symptoms and can significantly improve overall eye comfort. Radiofrequency treatment is worth exploring for individuals seeking a non-invasive and sustainable solution.

Perfect fit!

Have been going here for a year and a half now, since 2023. First, the location and interior design ... is fantastic. It’s very spacious and encourages you to linger, and to really enjoy and try out the frames on display. Does not feel like a warehouse like some places do—no, this is much closer to a boutique. When my eyes aren’t dilated, I read some of the fashion magazines they have out… I see Dr. Stidham—no complaints, he’s a pleasant and friendly man. I don’t really have ocular health issues of concern so I can’t speak of what receiving more specialised/intensive care here is like, but I would suspect it’s fine. Joe is one of the assistants and very nice to speak with, too. Angela, Brian, and Rina (front-of-house) are darlings! I always chat up a storm with them and they have great senses of fashion; gotta say, Angela has killer fashion, and Brian knows EXACTLY what I want. Even when I don’t know what I want! Rina was quite kind to my fiancée and made her feel very welcome when she was running late due to a stuck train blocking her commute, and has a sense of humour. It’s quite fun chatting up the other customers here, too, very much salon vibes. Oh! And they throw a Tiny Gallery to support local artists. Really a gem of a place at Riverplace!

My exam with Dr. Stidham was the most thorough vision exam I have ever had. I had the wellness photo... s done and much to my surprise, a condition was discovered that could down the line cause significant vision loss and will require additional attention from a retinal specialist. I usually have annual eye exams but would never have known about this issue because there are not obvious symptoms. So grateful for the experience, exam, information and understanding.

I recently had an exam here. The entire team was really kind and professional. The whole process was... quick and simple. The only issue I had wasn't even with them, I just had a little bit of trouble finding their establishment. I definitely recommend them.

I called Look + See Eye Care and... see what was going on there team helped figure out where they got stuck and got them to me in less then 48 hours. They also send me additional sample contacts to get me through my week long trip as my original order wasn't going to come in before I was going to leave.
