Dry Eye Therapy

Dry eyes can be extremely irritating and should not be left untreated. This is caused by your eye’s inability to produce and maintain tears.

Common symptoms of dry eyes include:

Stinging, burning, or scratchy feeling in your eyes
Mucus in or around your eyes
Sensitivity to light
Redness
Watery eyes
Difficulty wearing contact lenses
Blurred vision

At SaveSight, we provide our patients with dry eye products, such as lubricating eye drops and over-the-counter products for long-lasting eye relief. As well, we offer Dry Eye Assessments and Intense Pulsed Light Therapy. (IPL)

We determine the type of dry eye you have using the IDRA comprehensive diagnostic system. This allows us to treat your dry eyes in an individual, specific manner.

Lumenis Optima IPL is a revolutionary treatment for inflammatory eye conditions including dry eye.

Book a dry eye assessment today to see if IPL is right for you.

Intense pulsed light (IPL) is an in-office, non-invasive treatment for dry eye specifically caused by inflammation and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). The procedure involves using a handheld device that is applied to the area around the eyelids. Pulses of light are emitted to reduce inflammation around the eyes and to gently warm the oil that can become clogged within the meibomian glands (or oil-producing glands) so that it can be expressed.

Eye Nutrition

As you age, your eyes become more susceptible to issues. To help protect your eyes, we offer our patients AREDS formulated multivitamins. Similar to other multivitamins you’d take for your health, AREDS vitamins are designed to maintain your eye health.

Laser Eye Surgery Co-Management

Laser eye surgery can relieve you from having to rely heavily on your glasses or contacts. Our practice refers patients to Grey Bruce LASIK in Owen Sound.

LASIK is performed to treat myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism, all issues we check for during eye exams. Although we do not perform laser eye surgery ourselves, we provide pre-procedure consultations and post-operative care for patients.

Grey Bruce LASIK provides a service that is personalized on your individual vision dynamics. Using top-of-the-line technology, they use an ultra-precise Intralase Femtosecond Laser (the safest way to perform LASIK).

Retinal Photography

Our state-of-the-art computer-assisted digital retinal camera allows us to examine your retina. The retina is the lining at the back of your eye that receives light and converts it into images sent to your brain.

As you age, retinal photography becomes invaluable as we use it to check for age-related conditions, such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. This test is especially important if your vision has changed recently. These recent changes could be a result of more serious issues.

Optic Nerve Scanning

Optic nerve scanning is an early detection method our team uses to diagnose glaucoma. If undetected, the damage created by glaucoma can cause vision loss and blindness.

By scanning the optic nerve, we can see the structural changes before your vision is affected. Oftentimes your vision will not change for several years, even though the structure of your optic never has changed. This early detection allows our team to diagnose and recommend treatment right away.

Fuller, Darker, Longer Natural Lashes with Latisse

You deserve the beautiful lashes you have always wanted. That’s where Latisse comes in. Latisse is a topical application that naturally promotes the growth of thicker, longer, darker eyelashes.

Latisse contains bimatoprost which was initially formulated for glaucoma. Bimatoprost increases the growth phase of your lashes with consistent results. At SaveSight Vision Centre, we are thrilled to offer Latisse as an eye aesthetic solution.

With well-documented clinical trials and results, Latisse has been proven to be a safe and effective prescription eye growth product.
