Dry eye syndrome is a common and often uncomfortable condition that affects many people. At Golden Hill Optical in Mesa, Arizona, we offer specialized services to diagnose, manage, and treat dry eye syndrome effectively.What to Expect During Your Dry Eye Evaluation

When you come to Golden Hill Optical for a dry eye evaluation, our expert team will:

• Assess Your Symptoms: We will start by gathering detailed information about your symptoms, including dryness, irritation, and discomfort.

• Conduct Thorough Testing: Our evaluation includes tests to measure tear production, evaluate the quality of your tears, and identify any underlying issues contributing to your dry eye.

• Utilize Advanced Technology: We use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, such as tear break-up time tests and ocular surface staining, to accurately diagnose your condition.

Effective Treatments for Dry Eye Syndrome

• Artificial Tears: Over-the-counter or prescription eye drops to provide moisture and relief.

• Prescription Medications: Anti-inflammatory drops or other medications to address underlying inflammation, including Restasis, which helps increase your eyes' natural ability to produce tears.

• Optase and Retaine Products: We offer Optase and Retaine eye care products, which are specially formulated to provide long-lasting relief from dry eye symptoms by stabilizing the tear film and reducing evaporation.

• Lifestyle Modifications: Recommendations to reduce environmental triggers, such as increasing humidity or taking breaks from screens.

• Advanced Therapies: Procedures like punctal plugs or LipiFlow, a thermal pulsation treatment, to enhance tear production and alleviate symptoms.
