Advanced Dry Eye Clinic

Dry Eye Assessment

Watery eyes? Burning? Stinging? Redness? Tired eyes? Difficulty wearing contact lenses? Night-time glare? Sensitive to light? You may be suffering from dry eyes.

Yes, Calgary is dry, but that doesn’t mean your eyes should be. Carrington Optometry offers comprehensive dry eye assessments using dry eye specific testing allowing tailored in-clinic treatment options for your eyes. Treatment options include conventional methods like artificial tears, eye masks, eyelid hygiene products and nutritional supplementation. Advanced methods include prescription medications, radiofrequency therapy, intense pulse light therapy, lid deep cleansing and gland expression.

InMode Forma-I Dry Eye Treatment

This treatment is Health Canada approved for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. It uses radiofrequency energy to optimally heat below the skin’s surface which unclogs your meibomian oil glands. This results in improved tear quality and protects from gland loss. A bonus perk is collagen production which reduces fine lines and wrinkles!

InMode Lumecca Dry Eye Treatment

This treatment uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to reduce inflammation around the eyes. Inflammation is the underlying cause of Dry Eye Disease, particularly in patients with ocular rosacea. Lumecca IPL is also effective at killing demodex mites which like to hide in eyelashes. An added benefit is reduction in age spots, redness and freckles which can leave you with a clearer complexion!
Forma-I RF and Lumecca IPL can also be used to treat styes, chalazions and blepharitis.
