What is Dry Eye?

Dry eye is a condition in which the eye does not produce enough tears for healthy eye function. Having dry eye is fairly common in those over 50, affecting around 30% of people of that age or older. Dry eye can be uncomfortable and, in some cases, can cause vision damage if not looked after by an optometrist.

Stoney Creek Optometry is here to examine your eye health. If you feel you may have dry eye or have any symptoms, book an appointment with our practice.

What Causes Dry Eye?

There are many potential causes of dry eye. Dry eye can result from problems with tear film, aging, or certain medications. A common cause of dry eye is a condition called meibomian gland dysfunction, in which the glands at the corners of the eye become clogged. Talking to our doctors can help to identify the cause of your dry eye.

You may have dry eye if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms:

  • Stinging or burning of the eye

  • Eye mucus
