Dry Eye Clinic at Montrose Eye Care – Houston, TX

Dry eye is a common and often frustrating condition that occurs when your eyes don't produce enough tears or produce poor-quality tears, resulting in discomfort, irritation, and even vision problems. At Montrose Eye Care, we understand how important clear, comfortable vision is for your quality of life, and our Dry Eye Clinic offers advanced treatments to help alleviate dry eye symptoms and restore eye health.

What is Dry Eye?

Dry eye is a chronic condition that happens when your eyes can't maintain a healthy tear film, which is essential for keeping the surface of your eyes smooth, clear, and comfortable. This condition may be caused by factors like age, environmental exposure, contact lens use, or medical conditions, and it can impact people of all ages.

Symptoms of Dry Eye

Dry eye symptoms vary in severity and may include:

• Burning or stinging sensations

• Redness and irritation

• Blurred or fluctuating vision

• Sensitivity to light

• Feeling like there’s something in your eye

• Watery eyes (from reflex tearing)

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, you’re not alone. Our Dry Eye Clinic at Montrose Eye Care can help determine the underlying cause and offer treatments tailored to your specific needs.

Our Dry Eye Treatments

Our clinic provides a range of cutting-edge treatments to target the causes of dry eye and offer long-lasting relief. Each of these treatments offers unique benefits, and we will work with you to find the most effective approach for your condition.

Envision by InMode – FORMA-I & LUMECCA-I

Envision by InMode offers innovative technologies for dry eye relief, focusing on both meibomian gland function and skin health around the eyes.

FORMA-I

FORMA-I is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that uses gentle, controlled heat to stimulate the meibomian glands, which are responsible for producing the oils needed to keep your tears from evaporating too quickly. This warmth helps clear gland blockages, restoring natural tear production and providing relief from dryness and irritation. FORMA-I is quick, comfortable, and can be incorporated into your regular eye care routine.

LUMECCA-I

LUMECCA-I uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy to target inflammation around the eyes, often a root cause of dry eye discomfort. By applying gentle light pulses to the skin around the eyes, LUMECCA-I reduces inflammation and stimulates the meibomian glands to function more effectively. This helps improve tear quality and reduce common symptoms of dry eye.

Both FORMA-I and LUMECCA-I treatments are designed to address the primary factors contributing to dry eye, giving you relief and enhancing overall eye health.

Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) – Celluma

Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT), also known as photobiomodulation, is an advanced treatment using Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology to deliver therapeutic light energy to tissues, providing significant health benefits. By applying specific wavelengths of light to the skin, LLLT stimulates natural biochemical reactions within the cells, similar to how plants convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. This process enhances cellular metabolism, accelerates the repair and replenishment of damaged cells, reduces inflammation, and stimulates collagen production, which is essential for smooth skin and healthy body tissues.

For dry eye relief, LLLT effectively reduces inflammation and promotes better function of the meibomian glands, which are essential for maintaining a stable tear film. This gentle, non-invasive therapy can help relieve dry eye symptoms and improve overall eye health, making it ideal for patients seeking long-term relief.
