Customized Skincare & Makeup

We help select the most suitable skincare and eye makeup products for each patient. A complimentary skin analysis using VISIA technology assesses the patient’s skin type, conditions, and specific needs. This ensures that all recommended products are effective for skin care and safe from toxic ingredients that could exacerbate dry eye symptoms.

(Non-invasive)

Customized Supplementation

We help create personalized nutritional recommendations tailored to support and enhance ocular surface health, particularly for those with dry eye disease or related conditions. These recommendations focus on providing targeted nutrients like Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals that help improve tear production and reduce inflammation.
