Private Dry Eye Syndrome Treatments
Dry eye syndrome, or dry eye disease, is a common condition that occurs when the eyes don’t make enough tears, or the tears evaporate too quickly.
Dry eye syndrome is also known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca, or simply “dry eye”.
If you are concerned about your eye lids turning inwards (Entropion), your eye lids turning outwards (Ectropion), or eye lid cysts (Chalazions) you can ask book to see one of our Consultant Ophtalmologists privately without any long delays and at a time to suit you. Our Consultant Ophthalmic (eye) surgeons are located in our ophthalmology clinic, tailored to individual needs in fully equipped clean examination rooms.
What treatments are available for dry eye syndrome?
There are a wide range of Entropion treatments including:

All our Consultant Ophthalmologists are registered on the GMC Specialist Register and are members of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists.
Particular attention is taken during the examination to confirm if the dry eye syndrome is caused by an underlying condition, treating this condition usually helps relieve the symptoms.
