The cause is an imbalance in your tear makeup. In order to properly moisturize your eyes, tears have to have a precise mixture of water, oil, and mucus. Two of the most common types of dry eye are characterized by a lack of one of these components:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Evaporative dry eye describes when your tears lack adequate oils and evaporate too quickly<\/li>\n<li>Aqueous dry eye is when your system doesn\u2019t have enough water to produce healthy tears<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your eye doctor can determine which type or types of dry eye you\u2019re facing, and how best to address them. Your dry eye case is unique to you, and catching it early can make treatment easier!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;\/location-search\/&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Book Your Appointment&#8221;

Dry eye cases may also be addressed with eyelid wipes and cleansers that keep the area clean and resist further infection or irritation.<\/p>\n<p>Many of our member practices also offer gland expression, which is an in-office treatment that unclogs oil glands and restores their normal function, helping produce healthier tears.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;\/location-search\/&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Book Your Appointment&#8221; button_text_tablet=&#8221;Book Your Appointment&#8221; button_text_phone=&#8221;SCHEDULE NOW&#8221; button_text_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; module_id=&#8221;book-ur-appt&#8221; module_class=&#8221; &#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;68f14bff-8f6c-4fa9-85ee-d41bad9097b5&#8243; button_text_size=&#8221;15px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;10px|15px|10px|15px|true|true&#8221; global_module=&#8221;617&#8243; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_css_main_element_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_css_main_element_tablet=&#8221;width: 100%;||text-align: center;&#8221; custom_css_main_element_phone=&#8221;width: 100%;||text-align: center;&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; module_class=&#8221;inline-btns-wrapper&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_enable_image=&#8221;off&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;right&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_css_main_element_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; custom_css_main_element_tablet=&#8221;display: flex;||flex-wrap: wrap;||margin-bottom: 30px !important;&#8221; custom_css_main_element_phone=&#8221;display: flex;||flex-wrap: wrap;||margin-bottom: 30px !important;&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/localeyedoctor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/How-to-Treat-Dry-Eye.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;How to Treat Dry Eye&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; alt=&#8221;Close-up of a woman using lubricating eye drops for dry eyes&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.5&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#004080&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;100px||100px||true|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; module_class=&#8221;ipad-pro-row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;90%&#8221; width_tablet=&#8221;80%&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;&#8221; width_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1216px&#8221; custom_css_main_element=&#8221;align-items: center;&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;left&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_css_main_element_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; custom_css_main_element_tablet=&#8221;width: 100% !important;&#8221; custom_css_main_element_phone=&#8221;width: 100% !important;&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;40px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;1px&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;24px&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;26px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Your Local Eye Doctor in Buffalo, NY and Rochester, NY<\/h2>\n<p>The eye doctors at each of\u00a0our network member practices\u00a0are well-acquainted with how irritating dry eye disease can be, which is why they pay close attention to detail and give everyone the individualized attention they deserve for their dry eye case.
