Dry Eye Clinic

At Pendleburys we offer a comprehensive DRY EYE CLINIC to assist our patients with the annoying day to day symptoms associated with the condition. We perform specialist tests to assess severity and offer a wide variety of products and treatments to make each day more comfortable. So there is no need to tolerate and just accept it, we can now do a lot to help!

Initially you would see one of our optometrist for a Dry Eye Assessment appointment and from there you will be advised on the various treatments available to you. Your optometrist will discussMG and explain your condition and recommend a treatment plan which will be specific to your individual needs. You will work together, as good control will also be dependent on home care compliance and regular follow up appointments if needed. As part of your appointment you will also be assessed for Blepharitis and MGD (Meibomian Gland Dysfunction) as these conditions are closely associated with Dry Eye.

Prior to your assessment appointment you will need to complete a questionnaire, you may download and print from the link below, call in to the practice to collect or arrive 10 minutes early for your appointment to fill it in before you are seen. This is a very helpful tool in the initial assessment and needs to be completed in advance.

  • Full Dry Eye assessment including Private sight test £69.00.   Patients entitled to an NHS test may use that allowance as part of this appointment. New patients must have a sight test with us either before the assessment or as part of the appointment type above.
