Dry Eyes

Dry eyes happen when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or when your tears evaporate too quickly. One of the most common causes is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), where the glands that produce the oily layer of your tears become blocked. This leads to dryness, irritation, burning, and itching.

TearCare® Dry Eye Treatment

The TearCare System is a breakthrough, doctor-guided dry eye treatment designed to treat the root cause of evaporative dry eye by clearing blockages in your meibomian glands. Using patented SmartHeat® technology, TearCare delivers gentle, controlled heat while allowing you to blink naturally — restoring your eye’s protective oil layer for lasting dry eye relief.


Unlike other treatments, TearCare therapy offers a comfortable, open-eye, spa-like experience that fits all eye shapes and sizes. It’s quick, portable, and can be easily administered by trained staff without disrupting your eye exam.

TearCare SmartHeat® Technology

TearCare’s patented SmartHeat® technology delivers consistent, precise thermal energy directly to the outer eyelids while preserving your natural blink. This ensures effective melting of meibum obstructions with maximum comfort and safety. The device continuously monitors temperature to maintain optimal heat levels throughout treatment.
