Our practice serves Waller TX with a mission centered on comprehensive vision care, and the management of Dry Eye Syndrome remains a pillar of that foundation. Whether you experience intermittent dryness or constant discomfort that impacts daily living, our team will analyze your symptoms, identify potential causes, and develop a long-term plan for comfortable, healthy eyes.
The Personalized Approach to Dry Eye Syndrome
The term "dry eye" applies when tear production is insufficient or tears evaporate too quickly. This condition leads to irritation, burning, redness, and general discomfort.
While Dry Eye is common, each case presents a distinct situation that varies by age, lifestyle, medical background, and environmental exposure. At Waller Family Eye Care, we specialize in diagnosing these individual factors and tailoring our approach to each patient.
Because "dry eye" is a broad term with many variations, our discussions with you will be comprehensive, covering symptoms, daily habits, and medical history. Tara Bailey and Jose Payan conducts specific testing for tear quantity, tear quality, and eyelid health to pinpoint the root cause. Some patients experience dryness that fluctuates with the seasons or with screen time, while others experience chronic dryness caused by gland dysfunction or inflammation. Our team recognizes these distinctions, enabling effective treatment.
Full Evaluation for Accurate Diagnosis in Waller TX
Effective treatment begins with a thorough evaluation of the eye and its surrounding structures. During your appointment, Tara Bailey and Jose Payan carefully evaluates the eye surface, looking for signs of inflammation, tear film stability, and eyelid activity. These evaluations help determine if dryness is due to a lack of secretion, rapid evaporation, blocked glands, or environmental factors.
Modern lifestyle changes have increased the prevalence of dry eye symptoms. Spending long hours in front of computers or other digital devices often leads to decreased blinking frequency, which dries out the eyes. Other triggers include wind, heat, specific medications, and underlying medical conditions. Identifying these potential triggers is a crucial part of our assessment.
By exploring the deeper structures of the eye, Tara Bailey and Jose Payan creates treatment plans that ensure immediate comfort and promote long-term health.
Treatment Options Tailored to Your Individual Needs
Upon identifying the cause of your Dry Eye Syndrome, Waller Family Eye Care creates a tailored treatment plan to relieve discomfort and protect your eye health. Some patients benefit from simple lifestyle changes, while others require therapeutic intervention. Tara Bailey and Jose Payan reviews every option with you so you fully understand the condition and how best to treat it.
Treatment plans may include:
• Use of artificial tears or lubricating drops
• Adjustments to screen habits and digital device use
• Hydration advice

Untreated dry eyes can worsen over time. Our clinic focuses on immediate relief and long-term interventions to reduce irritation and prevent future flare-ups.
