At a glance

Diagnosis
LipiView examination

Dry eye results from an imbalance of the tear film that protects the surface of the eye. The causes are varied: screens, air-conditioned environments, contact lens wear or age.

Recognising the symptoms

  • A burning or stinging sensation
  • A feeling of grit or a foreign body
  • Paradoxical reflex watering
  • Vision that fluctuates through the day

A precise diagnosis

The LipiView examination analyses the quality of your tear film and the function of the Meibomian glands. It allows the exact cause of dryness to be targeted rather than simply masking the symptoms.
