Our Approach to solving Dry Eyes
Dry Eyes are a real problem. In fact, approximately 20% to 30% of people in the UK may experience symptoms of dry eyes at some point in their lives.
With this in mind, we made it our mission to solve this enigma. At RevolutionEyes, we believe we have the tools and the knowledge to tackle Dry Eyes better than ever before.
Our approach consists of treating the 3 most common causes for dryness, using a Triple Treatment Method. Providing you with better and clearer vision for longer.
How long does the improvement last?
Harnessing the power of our proprietary Triple Treatment Method, our Dry Eye Management package offers unparalleled relief and lasting results. Depending on the severity of dryness, a single session can provide up to 2 months of relief.
However, for a transformative improvement in tear quality and quantity, between 2-4 sessions may be required. Experience the difference and reclaim comfort and clarity with our tailored approach to dry eye treatment.
How do Dry Eyes affect YOU?
Dry eye syndrome is a condition characterised by insufficient moisture or lubrication on the surface of the eye. The lack of lubrication and moisture around the eyes can trigger the following issues:
-
Ocular discomfort: gritty, burning, or dry sensations.
-
Symptoms include redness and occasional inflammation.
-
Vision may intermittently blur, especially during focused tasks.
-
Sensitivity to light increases, worsening glare and halo effects.
-
Contact lens wear becomes uncomfortable.
-
Severe cases can damage the cornea and increase infection risk.
Why are your eyes so DRY?
There are various causes and risk factors associated with dry eye syndrome:
1. Decreased tear production due to aging, hormonal changes, medications, or medical conditions like Sjögren's syndrome.
2. Increased tear evaporation from environmental factors, prolonged screen time, or activities reducing blinking.
3. Imbalance in tear composition, commonly from meibomian gland dysfunction.
4. Environmental factors such as smoke, wind, dust, and air conditioning.
5. Contact lens wear.
6. Age-related changes.
7. Medical conditions like autoimmune diseases, diabetes, thyroid disorders, or vitamin A deficiency.
8. Medications including antihistamines, decongestants, antidepressants, hormone therapy, and certain blood pressure medications.
