Dry, irritated, or tired eyes can make even the simplest tasks uncomfortable. At Leightons, our experienced optometrists take the time to understand what’s behind your symptoms. Through a detailed dry eye assessment and tailored treatment plan, we’ll help you find lasting relief and comfort.
Dry, uncomfortable eyes aren’t something you have to live with. When left untreated, dry eye can affect your focus, confidence, and quality of life – making everyday activities like reading, driving, or using a screen more difficult. Our goal is to help you feel the difference that comes with healthy, comfortable eyes.
For many people, dry eye is linked to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), where the oil glands in your eyelids become blocked or stop producing the right balance of oils. If untreated, these glands can deteriorate over time, making symptoms worse. That’s why an early and accurate diagnosis is so important.
If any of the following sound familiar, it might be time to see one of our clinicians:
Your eyes feel:
Dry | Gritty | Sore | Itchy | Watery | Tired | Light sensitive
Your eyes look:
