Address the underlying problems causing dry eyes with the latest treatments and medications.
Get Relief from the Discomfort of Dry Eye
Every time you blink, your eyelid spreads tears across the surface of your eye to keep it lubricated and protect it from damage and infection. Without enough moisture, your eyes can become dry, red, and irritated, and eventually, the lack of tears can damage your cornea and affect your vision.
Fortunately, with medical dry eye treatments from Eye MDs of Inland, you can enjoy healthy, clear eyes without discomfort or concerns about long-term damage.

What Is Dry Eye?
Dry eye is a condition in which your tear ducts don’t produce enough tears or produce good quality tears to keep your eyes sufficiently lubricated. It’s a common condition that can occur with age, medical conditions, eyelid problems, certain medications, or environmental factors.
Meibomian Gland Dysfunction
Meibomian gland dysfunction is another common cause of dry eyes. Eyelids contain tiny glands that produce meibum which is a lipid eye protectant, which mixes with water and mucus that helps keep the eye surface moist. These glands, like any oil gland can result in blockage which can slow oil production and cause the eye to dry out too quickly. It also produces styes and chalazions. Eye MDs of Inland has the revolutionary Lipiflow treatment which can unblock stubborn oil glands giving relief of dry eyes.
Diagnosing Dry Eyes
Most patients seek dry eye treatment when they experience irritated, itchy, red, or watery eyes, blurred vision, or stinging or scratching sensations. To uncover the source of the problem, we perform a detailed eye exam to evaluate the amount and quality of tear production and evaluate the eyelid, cornea, and tear ducts. The exam and testing, along with a complete medical history evaluation, help us determine why you have dry eyes and how to alleviate them.
