OUR FOCUS IS…

Treating Dry Eyes

When your eyes feel itchy, irritated, and there’s a strong urge to rub your eyes, very likely you’re suffering from Dry Eye Syndrome.
Most eye doctors will tell you that rubbing your eyes is harmful and can damage your cornea. It’s recommended that you try over the counter eye drops if the dryness is mild. This often soothes the irritation.
But if eye drops fail to do the trick, the next step would be to visit an optometrist. The optometrists at Bridlewood Eye Care can treat your dry eyes in the safest & most effective way.

QUESTIONS

Q&A with Our Eye Doctors

Dr. Blaine Answers Your Eyecare Questions

Q: How do I know if I have Dry Eye?

Dry eye can cause quite a few symptoms, anything from the eyes actually feeling dry to the eyes watering often, or having a burning, itchy, or irritated feeling. One of the most common symptoms is the eyes feeling gritty or like something is in your eye. Most people will often experience blurred vision since the tears, which comprise the outermost surface of the eye, are unstable.
