Dry Eye
Most times dry eyes are due to inflammation in the eye. Symptoms include sandy gritty feelings, burning, scratchy and teary eyes. Dry eye can be treated with lubricant or prescribed medication such as Restasis. A Punctal Plug can be inserted in the tear drainage canal for those who dislike eye drops.
Allergy Eye
Even though “itchy eye” is a common symptom, there are different types of allergic reaction in the eye that call for treatment. It can range from a highly contagious allergic reaction to less severe seasonal allergy. Sometimes contact lenses can cause the allergic reaction.
Eye Injuries, Pain / Foreign Bodies in the Eye

Seeing Flashes of Lights
Seeing lightning strikes or bright flashes of light often may indicate retinal detachment. Retinal detachment is a serious condition that needs prompt evaluation. If detected, retinal specialist referral or emergency visit will immediately be arranged.
