In many cases, dry eye symptoms are caused by insufficient tear production or tears that evaporate too quickly. It’s a common and chronic condition that is aggravated by a variety of factors. These include screen time, hormonal changes, medications, autoimmune disorders, or environmental factors.
One of the most common causes of dry eyes is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). These glands are responsible for helping to maintain a healthy ocular surface. When they don’t function properly, tears evaporate too quickly and the result is dry, irritated eyes. Studies have shown thatLipiFlow® effectively treats Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). Using heat and gentle massage, LipiFlow® works quickly and comfortably to help to restore meibomian gland function and provide relief from dry eye symptoms, and it’s available right here in our Calgary eye clinic.
