Are your eyes constantly feeling tired, irritated, or gritty? You may be one of the millions of people suffering from dry eye syndrome.

At East Vision, we offer diagnostic testing and customized treatment plans to help you find relief from dry eye symptoms.

Understanding Dry Eye Syndrome

 

Dry eye syndrome is more than just occasional discomfort. It’s a complex condition or cluster of conditions that occur when your eyes either don’t produce enough tears, produce sub-quality tears or when your tears evaporate too quickly. Common symptoms include:

  • Burning or stinging sensation
  • Feeling like there’s something in your eyes
  • Feeling like a ‘film’ over your eyes
  • Blurred vision that improves with blinking
  • Light sensitivity
  • Redness and irritation
  • Difficulty wearing contact lenses
  • Eye fatigue, especially during digital device use

Our Advanced Diagnostic Approach

 

We utilize our experience and technology to help diagnose the root cause of your dry eye symptoms. Our comprehensive evaluation includes:

  • Detailed patient history and symptom assessment
  • Tear film analysis
  • Meibomian gland evaluation
  • Tear break-up time measurement
  • Corneal surface examination
  • Assessment of any associated ocular inflammatory conditions

“The best optometrist! My experience at East Vision was great, they were friendly, got to know me, and you can see their genuine care for their customers. You get a real feeling that nothing is being missed and the optometrist Photi's friendly approach, willingness to explain the process and answer my questions along the way was reassuring. If you are seeking a brilliant local optometrist in the Bulimba / Balmoral / Hawthorne area, I cannot recommend them enough!”

“I recently had my eyes tested at East Vision Optometry and was extremely impressed by the detail taken to check all aspects of my eyes. They took images of the front and back of my eyes and saved these to use for future benchmarking to see what changes occur over time. They also ran through a detailed explanation of the overall condition of my eyes and my vision. This level of detail and explanation was something I haven’t experienced with optometrists I’ve seen in the past so I will definitely be using East Vision as my optometrist moving forward.”

The staff are wonderful front of house, very welcoming and knowledgeable. They have a great range of frames, from classic to funky, to suit all budgets. I would highly recommend.”
