What is Dry Eye?
What is Dry Eye?
Dry eye syndrome is a condition that occurs when the eyes are unable to maintain a healthy layer of tears. Tears are essential for lubricating the eyes, washing away debris, and ensuring clear vision. When the eyes fail to produce an adequate amount of tears or the tears evaporate too quickly, it results in discomfort and irritation.
Symptoms of Dry Eye
- Persistent Dryness: The eyes may feel consistently dry or gritty.
- Redness: Increased bloodshot appearance in the eyes.
- Burning or Stinging Sensation: Eyes may feel like they’re burning or stinging.
- Watery Eyes: Paradoxically, dry eye can cause excessive tearing as a response to irritation.
- Blurry Vision: Vision may become intermittently blurry.
Symptoms of Dry Eye
Causes of Dry Eye
Causes of Dry Eye
- Aging: As people age, tear production typically diminishes.
- Environmental Factors: Dry or windy climates, smoke, or prolonged screen time can contribute to dry eye.
- Medical Conditions: Conditions like diabetes, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or thyroid disorders may increase the risk.
- Medications: Certain medications like antihistamines, decongestants, or hormone replacement therapy can induce dry eye symptoms.
- Eyelid Problems: Poor eyelid function or conditions affecting the eyelids can lead to inadequate tear distribution.
Dry Eye Treatment Options
- Artificial Tears: Over-the-counter eye drops can provide relief by supplementing natural tears.
- Lifestyle Adjustments: Taking breaks during screen time, staying hydrated, and using a humidifier can help alleviate symptoms.
- Prescription Medications: In some cases, prescription eye drops or medications may be recommended.
- IPL Dry Eye Treatment: Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is an innovative treatment that targets inflammation in the glands around the eyes, improving their function and reducing dry eye symptoms.

Patient Satisfaction Is Very Important To Us
I was a patient of Dr Ahmed El Khashab’s between 2018 and 2021, and had a retinal detachment surgery, a silicone oil removal surgery and a cataract surgery, as well as glaucoma surgery in another clinic but followed up with him. With no doubt in my mind, he is by far the best doctor I’ve ever come across. He is very patient, very informative and an absolute gem of a doctor. - Menna Aly
