Comprehensive dry eye assessment

Advanced diagnostic tools at CARE

Our clinic uses state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to provide precise, personalized care for our dry eye patients. Here's an overview of the tools we use:

• Corneal sensitivity: Measures the sensitivity of the cornea to assess the severity of dry eye.
• Tearlab Osmometer: Analyzes tear osmolarity to determine salt content and severity of dry eye.
• Inflammadry MMP9: Detects levels of the enzyme MMP9 in tears, a key indicator of ocular inflammation.
• Omegaquant: Measures omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid levels to assess overall health and risk of dry eye.
• Anterior Segment Imaging: Capture high-resolution images of the cornea, iris and lens to diagnose various ocular conditions.
• Schirmer test: Measures the quantity of tears produced to diagnose dry eye.
• Antares topographer: maps the corneal surface and assesses tear film quality, essential for understanding and treating corneal irregularities and dry eye.

These technologies enable us to accurately diagnose and effectively treat dry eye, offering our patients tailored solutions for optimal visual comfort.
