The Virtual Clinic
for Dry Eye Care
Easy access to the latest diagnostic and treatment technologies.
Smart Dry Eyes guides you from diagnosis to treatment through a connected network of eye care professionals — all following one structured protocol designed to treat the cause, not just the symptoms.
Smart Dry Eyes is a clinical platform built and run by dry eye specialists.
How It Works
1
Online Registration
Register at smartdryeyes.com and complete a validated symptom questionnaire. Within minutes, you’ll get an initial severity assessment — all from home, saved to your patient portal.
2
Diagnostic Scan
Visit a nearby partner optician or clinic for a specialized scan. Your provider captures detailed data on your tear film, oil glands, and eye surface using advanced imaging.
3
Specialist Review
Our dry eye ophthalmologists review your data and deliver a personalized treatment plan to your portal within 24 hours — built around the specific cause of your condition.
4
Treatment & Follow-Up
Your local provider delivers your treatment, which may include lid hygiene, anti-inflammatory therapy, or in-office procedures like Tixel or IPL. For complex cases, a specialist steps in directly.
THE DIFFERENCE
Why Smart Dry Eyes?
Most dry eye care treats symptoms. We treat the underlying cause.
Cause-Driven Care
We identify what’s causing your dry eye — gland dysfunction, inflammation, reduced tear production, or a combination — and treat accordingly.
Connected Providers
You, your optician, and your ophthalmologist can access diagnostic results and treatment plans on a single platform.
Combined Therapies
No single general approach. We select and combine therapies based on your diagnosis.
Less Dependence on Drops
By treating the cause, the goal is lasting improvement — not lifelong artificial tears.
TRANSPARENCY

Frequently Asked Questions
If you do not find answers to your questions here, please contact us at info@smartdryeyes.com.
What makes the Smart Dry Eyes treatment different?
Smart Dry Eyes differentiates itself from conventional treatments by identifying and treating the underlying causes of specific dry eye symptoms. Our approach provides patients with durable, long-term relief and enhanced eye health.
Do you guarantee the treatment results?
While Smart Dry Eyes treatments offer advanced and personalized solutions for dry eye disease, they do not guarantee 100% results for every patient. However, our targeted, technology-driven approach significantly improves the chances of successful treatment. Clinical studies have shown a significant improvement in symptoms in up to 90% of patients who suffer from evaporative dry eyes.
How effective are Tixel and IPL in alleviating dry eye syndromes?
Clinical studies conducted in various countries have shown that 90% of patients experienced significant symptom improvement after the first two treatments. Participants reported that the improvement was noticeable after the first session, and the results lasted increasingly longer with each subsequent session.
Are there any side effects with the treatments?
No side effects are expected. However, individuals with very sensitive skin may experience temporary skin irritation.
How many treatments are necessary?
Since the effect is cumulative, three to four sessions every two weeks apart are recommended.
How long does it take to get test results from Smart Dry Eyes?
You can expect a qualified analysis from your test results written by a dry eye specialist within 24 h. Based on the results a detailed treatment plan will be added.
Does insurance cover the treatments?
Social Security does not cover our treatment. However, some private insurance plans may provide coverage for the treatments.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
One Week Prior: Avoid using self-tanners or tanning beds. Also, sunbathing should be avoided.
The Day of the Treatment: Please remove contact lenses and eye makeup before your treatment. While both can be reapplied directly after the treatment, we recommend waiting 24 hours before reapplying makeup.
