Relief Could Come Sooner Than You Think

Dry eye disease is a condition that occurs when your tears aren’t able to provide adequate lubrication for your eyes. Dry eye may occur in patients with low or poor quality tear production. Left untreated this instability in tear production could lead to inflammation and damage to the surface of the eye.

If you suffer from dry eye disease, you may be able to find relief with BlephEX. BlephEX is a painless, in-office procedure that helps reduce or alleviate dry eye symptoms by removing the excess bacteria and toxins living along the edges of your eye. Using a handheld device, similar to an electric toothbrush, your doctor will carefully spin a small medical grade Micro-sponge along the base of the eyelashes to clear debris and exfoliate the eyelids.

BlephEX only takes 6-8 minutes and immediately improves uncomfortable symptoms such as swollen, itchy, sore or red eyelids. If you are experiencing symptoms, see Dr. Williams for a proper diagnosis, and be sure to ask how you can use your FSA and HSA end-of-year benefits to give yourself a pair of healthy eyes!
