At Eyes on Bridgwater, we’re here to help you find personalized strategies for maintaining your eye health and comfort. Whether we prescribe medicated eye drops or recommend an in-office treatment like IPL or RF therapy, we are committed to making a meaningful difference in your quality of life.
Schedule your eye exam today.
What Is Dry Eye?
Dry eye, also called dry eye disease, occurs when your eyes do not produce enough tears or your tears evaporate too quickly. This lack of proper lubrication can lead to discomfort and potential vision issues.
It’s crucial to recognize these symptoms early, and that is where we step in. We can help you learn more about this condition and provide personalized strategies to help relieve your discomfort.

More Than Dryness: Common Symptoms
Dry eye can cause a range of symptoms. You might even experience overly watery eyes because your eyes start producing more tears to compensate for a lower tear quality.
Other common symptoms include:
- Gritty, scratchy, or stinging sensations
- Fluctuating blurred vision
- The feeling that there’s something in your eye
- Sensitivity to light
When left untreated, dry eye can be harmful. Moderate to severe dryness can damage or scar your sensitive cornea, impairing your vision. Dry eye can also make wearing contact lenses uncomfortable.
