The London Institute for Dry Eye

We are proud to be the home of The London Institute for Dry Eye focusing on ocular surface wellness and lid hygiene. We offer diagnosis and management of dry eye and ocular surface disease including persistent red eyes, irritated lids, blepharitis and meibomian gland dysfunction.

There are a number of common risk factors for developing dry eye including extensive digital device use (without breaks), reduced blinking, contact lens wear, eye surgery, increased age, certain medications and medical conditions.
