Dry eye disease is one of the most undertreated conditions in eye care. Treatment options have come a long way, but many patients cycle through artificial tears, get limited relief, and settle for it. There's usually a better path. At Lumenis Eye Care & Wellness in Crest Hill, dry eye is something we see and treat every day. We look for what's actually driving it before recommending anything.
