Watery eyes aren’t always what they seem. 👀
In many cases, they’re a sign of dry eye, not excess tears. When your tear film is out of balance, your eyes overcompensate leading to constant watering and discomfort.

Find the real cause and get the right solution with a professional dry eye assessment at Athenry Opticians.

A patient came in with constantly watering eyes (epiphora) 👁️💧

His Jones I test was positive (fluorescing dye stayed in the eye) so the next logical step was a Jones II test (lacrimal syringing) to check whether the tear drainage system was blocked.

✅ Result: The lacrimal drainage system is patent
In other words — the tears can drain properly.

That tells us the watering isn’t due to a blockage, so we shift focus to functional causes like inflammation, poor tear quality, and meibomian gland dysfunction.

➡️ Next step: IPL + LLLT
These treatments reduce inflammation, improve oil gland function, and help stabilise the tear film — treating the cause, not just the symptom.

Clinical testing matters.
Targeted treatment matters.

👀 Same eye. Same patient. Two very different lash lines.

The first image shows Demodex mites on the eyelashes – a common cause of:
• Itchy, irritated eyes
• Crusty lashes
• Red lid margins
• Dry eye that won’t settle

➡️ The second image shows the same patient after BlephEx treatment.

Clean lash bases = healthier eyelids = happier eyes ✨

If your dry eye keeps coming back despite drops and wipes, the problem may be at the lash line.

Can I call myself a dry eye expert?

Dry eye has become the main focus of my clinical work — through postgraduate training, daily patient care, and continual learning.

✔️ BCLA Certificate in Dry Eye
✔️ Postgraduate study in Ocular Surface Disease
✔️ Dedicated dry eye clinic since 2020
✔️ Daily dry eye assessments & treatments, including IPL

I’m careful with labels — but deeply committed to evidence-based dry eye care and improving patient comfort.

If mascara suddenly burns, waters, or turns your eyes red 👀
it’s often a dry eye or inflammation issue, not the makeup itself.

✨ The good news: it’s treatable.

Dry eyes aren’t just about drops 👀

If your eyes burn, water, feel gritty or tired — the problem is often inflammation and blocked oil glands, not lack of tears.

✨ IPL & LLLT work by:
• Reducing inflammation
• Unblocking meibomian glands
• Improving tear quality (not just quantity)
• Treating the cause, not the symptom

For many people, this means fewer drops, more comfort, and longer-lasting relief.

Dry eye is a condition.
It deserves proper treatment.
