What Is Dry Eye?

Dry eye is a chronic condition that damages your tear film—the three-layer protective coating on your eyes. It can cause burning, stinging, blurry vision, and irritation  .

Why Tears Matter
    •    Moisturize & soothe the eye surface
    •    Enable clear vision by smoothing the lens
    •    Deliver oxygen & nutrients to cells
    •    Defend against infection with natural enzymes

Two Main Types

1. Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye
Your eyes don’t produce enough tears—often due to inflammation in the tear glands  .

2. Evaporative Dry Eye (Most Common)
Tears evaporate too quickly because the oil-producing meibomian glands are blocked or dysfunctional.
86% of dry eye cases involve MGD  .

Symptoms to Watch For
    •    Gritty, sandy feeling
    •    Burning or stinging
    •    Light sensitivity
    •    Blurry or fluctuating vision
    •    Watery eyes or mucus discharge

What Is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD)?

Meibomian glands line your eyelids and release oils that slow tear evaporation.
When these glands clog or malfunction (MGD), eyes dry out—even without obvious symptoms.
1 in 5 MGD patients are asymptomatic, yet early treatment prevents chronic damage  .

How We Treat It

After a comprehensive evaluation, Dr. Kim will customize a plan that may include:
    •    OTC/artificial tears or prescription drops
    •    Nutritional supplements
    •    Eyelid hygiene routines
    •    In-office treatments like gland expression, IPL, or RF therapies

Why Act Now

Left untreated, MGD and dry eye worsen over time. Early diagnosis prevents progression and preserves eye health.
