Dry Eye Evaluation and Treatment in Kinnelon, NJ
Dry eye can cause burning, stinging, scratchiness, redness, tearing, irritation, blurry vision, and the feeling that something is in the eye. Dry eye may happen when the eyes do not produce enough tears, when tears evaporate too quickly, or when the tear film is unstable.
Dry eye symptoms may include:
- Burning or stinging
- Scratchy or gritty sensation
- Redness
- Watery eyes

- Fluctuating vision
