Dry Eye & Blepharitis Treatment
Help for dry, watery eyes and sore, itchy eyelids.
If your eyes often feel gritty, sting or water, dry eye could be the cause. Itchy eyelids and flaky or crusty eyelashes can also be signs of blepharitis, a common condition that causes irritation around the eyelid edges.
At Robert Ellin Opticians, we’ll assess your eyes and recommend treatment to help you feel more comfortable.
BlefaCalm eyelid treatment
BlefaCalm is a professional cleaning treatment for your eyelids and eyelashes. Using a specially formulated gel containing tea tree oil, we carefully clean around the lash line to remove flakes, excess oil and build-up that can contribute to irritation.
This can help soothe uncomfortable eyelids and support the management of blepharitis.
Meibomian Gland Expression
Your eyelids contain tiny glands that release oil into your tears, helping stop them drying out too quickly. If these glands become blocked, your eyes may feel dry, sore or watery.
We apply carefully controlled pressure to help release trapped oil and improve its flow, supporting more comfortable eyes.
Care that continues at home
We’ll explain which treatments suit your eyes and give you practical advice on keeping your eyelids clean and managing symptoms at home. Ongoing care or repeat treatment may be recommended.
