The Benefits of Modern Dry Eye Treatments
Dry eye is a common condition. Opticians will see and treat this on a regular basis. For those already offering a dry eye clinic or for practices who may be considering offering this in the near future, finding the right dry eye treatments is essential in providing your patients with the absolute best care.
Introducing a range of modern dry eye instruments to your practice will contribute to offering your patients a comprehensive dry eye service. From diagnosis through to management and treatment. At Essilor we have worked to supply a range of dry eye instruments, helping you to go the extra mile in achieving a comfortable vision for your patients.
Conventional Dry Eye Treatments
Although they supply comfort by alleviating symptoms of dry eye disease, conventional treatment methods are often a short-term solution. They do not offer patients a long-term and lasting treatment solution for dry eyes. Which often leads to practices seeing patients returning for further treatment months down the line. When offering a treatment service, you want your patients to feel confident that the treatment will work, and they will not be dealing with their symptoms again in a few weeks or months. This is why modern dry eye treatments should be considered when improving your practice’s dry eye clinic.
Essilor – Modern Dry Eye Treatment Solutions
For modern dry eye treatment solutions, we offer the E-Eye and TearStim instruments. Both have been designed to offer a long-term management/treatment solution for dry eye disease. These treatments can provide comfortable vision for years, as opposed to a few weeks or months like the more conventional treatments, such as drops. Targeting the cause rather than just treating your patients’ symptoms.
TearStim – Keep your eyes fit
The TearStim is the perfect device for busy practices, offering a solution for dry eye disease within a matter of minutes. The TearStim works by stimulating the nerves below the eye using painless light pulses. This will encourage proper function of the meibomian glands, restoring gland secretion and quality. Not only does this provide relief, but the TearStim targets the cause of dry eye disease, providing results that can last up to 3 years. With only 3 sessions, over a period of time, your patients will soon bid dry, red, and watery eyes a thing of the past.

E-Eye – Using Intense Pulsed Light Technology
Our E-Eye device uses similar technology to target the cause of dry eye syndrome. Meibomian gland dysfunction has been identified as the leading cause of dry eye disease across the world. This is why we have designed instruments to effectively treat this in a bid to change the approach to dry eye treatment.
The E-Eye device generates a new type of polychromatic pulsed light, creating perfectly calibrated light pulses. Designed to stimulate the meibomian glands so they return to their normal function.
Benefits of the E-Eye Device:
- Simple and fast to use
- Patients will see instant improvements
- A long-lasting solution to dry eye disease
