Dry eye is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the eyes do not produce enough tears or when the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to discomfort, irritation, and even vision problems. There are several factors that can contribute to dry eye, including environmental factors, certain medications, and medical conditions such as diabetes or autoimmune diseases.
 

Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Its Role in Dry Eye

One of the main causes of dry eye is Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). The meibomian glands are located in the eyelids and are responsible for producing the oily layer of tears that helps to keep the eyes lubricated. When these glands are not functioning properly, it can lead to an imbalance in the tear film, resulting in dry eye symptoms.
 

Common Symptoms of Dry Eye

Dry eye can cause a range of symptoms that can vary in severity. Some of the most common symptoms include:
 

1. Dryness or a burning sensation in the eyes
2. Itching or a feeling of something in the eye
3. Excessive tearing
4. Blurred vision
5. Sensitivity to light
6. Eye fatigue or discomfort after reading or using a computer for prolonged periods

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to consult with an optometrist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
 

How TempSure Envi Therapy Works to Address Dry Eye Symptoms

TempSure Envi therapy is a revolutionary treatment option for dry eye relief. It utilizes radiofrequency technology to stimulate the meibomian glands and improve their function. During the treatment, a small handheld device is used to gently heat the eyelids. The controlled heat helps to unclog the blocked glands and promote the secretion of healthy oils.
 

The therapy is non-invasive and painless, with most patients reporting a gentle warming sensation during the treatment. It typically takes only a few minutes per eye and can be performed in the comfort of an eye care professional's office.
