Blepharitis & Dry Eye Treatment

The doctors at Fort Lauderdale Eye Associates treat dry eye and blepharitis.Dry Eye Syndrome and Blepharitis frequently occur together which means their treatments are often closely linked.

Below are some of the medical management options used in Fort Lauderdale at our office, with the most exciting being the Intense Pulsed Light Therapy.  This revolutionary therapy has provided long lasting results to many patients, often eliminating the need for other therapy options.

  • Eye Allergies and Dry Eyes
    Dry eyes can often be associated with eye allergy treatment as well as other causes. Our eye doctors can help address both issues.
  • Medical Management
    The term Dry Eyes should not be considered a diagnosis, but rather a symptom. Finding the cause of the dry eyes is very important in determining the best treatment plan. Our doctors take the time and do the extra testing often needed to determine the cause of the dry eyes, and are therefore able to provide the most effective treatment options, including the revolutionary treatment option of Intense Pulsed Light Therapy.
  • Punctal Occulsion Therapy
     
    Punctal plugs are tiny, biocompatible devices inserted into tear ducts to block drainage. This increases the eye's tear film and surface moisture to relieve dry eyes.  Punctal plugs usually are considered when non-prescription or prescription eye drops fail to relieve your dry eye condition
  • Intense Pulsed Light Therapy
    Dr. George Fournier privately trained with the creator of this revolutionary treatment and is excited to offer this new technology in our office. We are one of few offices in the United States that have been approved and have adopted this medical advancement
