What Other Symptoms Accompany Dry, Itchy Eyes?
Dry eye occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or the tears evaporate too quickly. This leads to dryness, irritation, and a gritty sensation that can make everyday tasks uncomfortable. Common symptoms of dry eye include:

- A stinging or burning sensation
- Sensitivity to light
- Blurred vision
- A feeling of something in the eye
Factors such as prolonged screen time, environmental conditions, and certain medications can exacerbate these symptoms.
IPL Dry Eye Treatment at Optical World
We are proud to offer intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy, a cutting-edge treatment designed to address the root causes of dry eye syndrome. IPL treatment is particularly effective for managing meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), a leading cause of dry eye.
IPL works by delivering pulses of light to the area around the eyes, reducing inflammation and improving the function of the meibomian glands. This non-invasive treatment provides immediate relief from dry eye symptoms and helps restore the natural tear film, offering long-term benefits.
