Ocular surface disease includes dry eyes, allergies, blepharitis, infections, and inflammations. This complicated condition affects over 20 million Americans. Most types are chronic and progressive, with early symptoms including burning, watering, itching, foreign body sensation, and blur. This can lead to significant suffering if left untreated. Risk categories for ocular surface disease include women over 40 and patients with inflammatory conditions.

In addition to diagnosing and treating a host of common types of ocular surface disease daily, the doctors and staff at LaFollette Eye Clinic have successfully treated patients with eye conditions caused by arthritis, hormone imbalance, thyroid conditions, Sjogren’s syndrome, lupus, and many others.
