What is Dry Eye Disease?

Dry Eye is classified as a disease commonly known as Dry Eye Disease (DED) or Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca. This chronic condition affects both the quantity and quality of tears, leading to inadequate lubrication of the eyes, which causes various symptoms and levels of discomfort.

You should consider getting your dry eyes treated when symptoms interfere with your daily activities or cause discomfort. Treating dry eyes early ensures that the condition doesn’t worsen or become a chronic and lifelong issue.
