One of the most misunderstood symptoms of dry eye is excessive watering.

When the ocular surface becomes irritated or the tear film becomes unstable, the eyes may produce reflex tears in response. The problem is that these tears often do not properly lubricate the surface of the eye.

Dry eye does not always feel ā€œdry.ā€
It can also present as:
ā€¢ watering
ā€¢ burning
ā€¢ fluctuating vision
ā€¢ redness
ā€¢ irritation
ā€¢ tired eyes by the end of the day

We are big fans over here of daily contacts ā€” fresh lens, less buildup, better comfort, and healthier eyes.

For many patients, switching to dailies means more comfortable wear, clearer vision, and fewer symptoms of dryness and irritation throughout the day.

Hormonal changes during perimenopauseā€”combined with long hours on screensā€”can affect tear quality, inflammation, and overall eye comfort.

Dry eye doesnā€™t always show up as dryness. It often shows up as burning, tearing, blurry vision, or light sensitivity.

Education is the first step toward relief.

A reminderā€” your eye exam is part of your overall health, not just your vision.

During an exam, we do more than checking your prescription. Weā€™re evaluating the retina, blood vessels, and optic nerveā€”areas where early signs of systemic disease can show up before symptoms begin.

Preventative care starts here.

5 years ago, we first stepped into this space with a vision for what we wanted eye care to feel likeā€”personal, thoughtful, thorough, and beautifully done.

Since then, ECBD has grown through a lot of hard work, support from family and friends, and patients who continue to trust us with their eyes and their stories.

Wild to look back at where it started and everything this space has become. Feeling a little nostalgic today. šŸ¤

Visine works by shrinking blood vessels to ā€œget the red outā€ šŸ‘€

But when it wears off ā†’ rebound redness (often worse). Itā€™s not treating dryness or inflammationā€¦ just hiding it.
