Dry Eye Treatment
Consultant-led eye care using modern diagnostic and surgical techniques.
BOOK A CONSULTATION MEET OUR SURGEONSWhat is Dry Eye Treatment?
Dry Eye Treatment is designed to relieve the symptoms of dry eye disease by improving the quality and stability of your tear film. Dry eye occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears, or when the tears evaporate too quickly, leading to irritation, discomfort, and blurred vision.
Dry eye can be caused by ageing, hormonal changes, prolonged screen use, contact lens wear, certain medications, environmental factors, or underlying medical conditions. Without treatment, symptoms can worsen and affect your daily comfort and vision.
At Battersea Hospital, our experienced ophthalmologists perform a comprehensive assessment to identify the underlying cause of your dry eyes and create a personalised treatment plan using the latest medical therapies and advanced technology.
