Dry, itchy, irritated eyes aren’t just a nuisance. For many in Middle Tennessee, they’re a daily disruption. Whether it’s seasonal allergens or too much screen time, dry eye symptoms can affect your vision, your comfort, and your overall quality of life.
At OPMT Vision Centers, we take a personalized approach to dry eye care. Your symptoms are unique, and your treatment should be, too. That’s why we’re proud to offer Dry Eye Rescue: a handpicked line of professional-grade dry eye relief products, now available at our Nashville office and online through Dry Eye Rescue Pro.
Your comfort matters just as much as your prescription. We’re here to help with both.
What Is Dry Eye Rescue?
Dry Eye Rescue is both a trusted brand of dry eye products and part of our hands-on approach to relieving symptoms and restoring comfort. Instead of offering off-the-shelf solutions, our doctors evaluate your symptoms and recommend exactly what works for your eyes—no guesswork, just clear guidance from a team that knows dry eye.
At our Nashville location, you can shop medical-grade dry eye relief products—including lid cleansers, preservative-free drops, and heat masks—right in the office. We’ve also partnered with Dry Eye Rescue Pro for easy online ordering, so you can restock your essentials without leaving home.
These are professional-grade solutions supported by clinical experience—not temporary fixes from the drugstore.
Common Dry Eye Symptoms and Causes
Dry eye symptoms often start subtly but can worsen over time. Watch for signs like:
- A burning or stinging sensation
- Gritty or sandy-feeling eyes
- Redness or irritation
- Blurry vision that comes and goes
- Sensitivity to light
- Excessive tearing (yes, even watery eyes can mean dry eye)
Dry eye can result from aging, hormonal shifts, screen time, medications, and environmental factors like wind or air conditioning. A leading cause is meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), where blocked oil glands in the eyelids interfere with healthy tear production.
How OPMT Treats Dry Eye
When dry eye goes beyond mild irritation, OPMT offers detailed testing and effective in-office treatments to address the root of the issue. Depending on what’s causing your dry eye, your treatment plan may include:
LipiFlow Treatment
A non-invasive procedure that gently heats and massages the eyelids to clear blocked meibomian glands—often a game-changer for MGD-related dry eye.
Meibomian Gland Expression
A manual technique used to stimulate oil production and open clogged glands, helping restore balance to the tear film.
Punctal Plugs for Dry Eyes
Tiny, biocompatible plugs that help retain natural tears by partially or fully blocking tear drainage ducts.
Our experienced optometrists provide these treatments in a comfortable, patient-centered setting. We also guide you on maintaining relief with the right products and home routine.
