Dry Eye Center
Dr. Riordan and her exceptional team at the Dry Eye Center offer full-service care for dry-eye patients every step of the way – from diagnosis to treatment.
Dry eye affects millions of people across every demographic, but is more common in women and older adults. Our specialists diagnose dry eye by measuring tear production and observing the eye with special stains. Treatment can include artificial tears and gels, plugs that block the drain and allow more tears to bathe the eye, and anti-inflammatory drops such as cyclosporine.
Symptoms of dry eye can vary from person to person, but most commonly include:
- Periodic blurring of vision
- Stringy mucus
- Burning
- Redness
- Foreign Body Sensation (scratchy feeling in the eye)
If you think you might have dry eye, Dr. Kimberly Riordan and our team at the Dry Eye Center would be happy to help you. Dr. Riordan is passionate about both her work and her patients and will provide you with the top level of care.
