Dry Eye Syndrome Dry eye syndrome refers to a breakdown in the quantity or quality of tears to moisten, cleanse and protect the eyes. This is significant because, with each blink, tears protect the surface of the eye, washing away dust and microorganisms. When this protective coating dries up, the eyes may feel “gritty” or burn and can be more sensitive to light. In extreme cases, vision can be blurred. If you suspect that you have dry eye, proper care will not only increase your comfort – it will protect your eyes. We can perform a series of tests, including a specialty test called TearLab, that will give us an exact count of your tear osmolarity.
