Dry Eye
Introducing the new Dry eye clinic to Clamps!
Do your eyes stream? Are you experiencing stinging, burning or a scratchy feeling in your eyes? Are your eyes sensitive to light? Are you having difficulty wearing contact lenses?
Many of us suffer from these symptoms due to various factors including medications, blepharitis and increased digital screen time. Dry eye syndrome (DES) can have a significant impact on a person’s quality of life. It can make it difficult to read, work, drive, and enjoy everyday activities. DES can also lead to serious eye problems,
such as corneal ulcers and infections.

Final review and conclusion.
At Clamps, we believe in investing in the best technology to deliver the best results for your eyes; at the consultation, we will explore the reasons for your DES and offer you a bespoke combination of treatments including Activa therapy (a heated device chamber), prescribed medications, Punctal plugs and the new IRPL therapy by our IP qualified Optometrists.
Tearstim , our latest dry eye device, works by delivering regulated pulses of light to the eye, which help to improve tear production and reduce inflammation.
• A white paper published by the Royal College of Ophthalmologists states that IRPL is “an effective treatment for reducing tear film osmolarity and improving tear production in patients with DES.
• A white paper published by the Association for Ocular Surface and Cor Health states that IRPL is “a safe and effective treatment for reducing inflammation and improving corneal staining in patients with DES.
At Clamps, we offer a safe, painless, effective and holistic way to improve your DES.
