Dry Eye Treatment in Chicago, IL

Dry eye is caused when the eyes do not produce enough tears or are producing low-quality tears that evaporate quickly. Though there can be different root causes, in both cases your eyes lack sufficient lubrication. Redness, irritation, itchiness, and other discomforting symptoms will appear initially and progressively worsen over time. We offer treatments to alleviate these symptoms and tackle their root causes, providing you with short-term relief while mitigating your dry eye over the long run.

At Big City Optical, our excellence starts with our ability to leverage our state-of-the-art technology for ultra-precise eye exam measurements, which our veteran staff uses to create customized dry eye treatment plans for you and your family. Among our tools are specialty contacts, like scleral and rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, which provide breathable, oxygen-rich support and help prevent more pollutants from entering the eye and causing inflammation. These technologies complement our comprehensive approach, ensuring accurate diagnoses and tailored treatments for optimal eye health.
