Dry eye syndrome

Dry Eye Syndrome

Dry Eye Syndrome

When Tears can not lubricate the eyes properly talk about the condition of Dry Eye. A frequent pathology that appears for various causes and as a natural part of the aging process of each person. The most effective treatment alternative for this visual problem is the IPL device, which generates polychromatic pulsed light capable of generating uniform sequences and pulses of light to relieve symptoms caused by Dry Eye Syndrome. At Clínica Nivaria we have the latest technological advances to guarantee the best results

Dry Eye Treatment

En Nivaria Clinic We have the best treatment to improve Dry Eye Syndrome. The IPL device stimulates the Meibomian glands and has an effectiveness of 80% on patients affected with this pathology. The device generates polychromatic pulsed light with a personalized intensity for each patient according to their skin type. The treatment stimulates the Meibomian glands by regenerating and increasing the secretion of tears. By restoring the lipid structure of the tear layer, the symptoms associated with dry eye syndrome improve considerably.

What are the causes of having Dry Eye?

Dry eye syndrome is caused by a chronic lack of sufficient moisture, lubrication or tears on the surface of the eye. Tears help keep the surface of the eyes lubricated, smooth and clean due to its complex mixture of water, fatty oils and mucus.

The decrease in the production of tears, the high evaporation of the same and imbalances in their composition are frequent causes of Dry Eye in many patients.

What are the symptoms of Dry Eye?

In general, ocular dryness is associated with the absence of the tear layer, either by insufficient tear production or excessive evaporation of it.

Suffering from Dry Eye produces vision disturbances, burning sensation, burning or foreign body in the eye. If the process is accelerated, the discomfort becomes permanent, resulting in a paradoxical and excessive secretion of tears.

Dry Eye can cause anatomical changes; atrophy of the orifices of the Meibomian glands triggering in episodes of infection such as styes, cysts, conjunctiva infections, and in severe cases microlacerations in the corneal epithelium. Therefore it is very important to go to ophthalmological control at least once a year to avoid possible complications
