One of the most common types of dry eye disease is evaporative dry eye, the result of a lack of tears caused by dysfunction of the meibomian gland. These glands produce oil that helps keep the tears from drying too quickly and can cause dry eye if not working properly.⁠ ⁠ LipiFlow® Thermal Pulsation Therapy is a revolutionary, comfortable, in-office procedure that takes less than 15 minutes.⁠ ⁠ Our team was the first to offer LipiFlow® in the region, and we’re proud to continue utilizing it to bring relief to our patients.⁠ ⁠ Curious if LipiFlow is the right course of action for your dry eye?

SMILE Eye Surgery Testimonial

Schedule a consultation at Gulfcoast Eye Care to see if SMILE is right for you! https://www.gulfcoasteyecare.com/contact-us/ ___ SMILE stands for Small Incision Lenticule Extraction and it’s the latest and most advanced LASIK alternative on the market. 👉 SMILE may be better for patients with sensitive eyes. It puts less pressure on the eye during surgery and is less likely to cause symptoms like dry eye after surgery. 👉 Since SMILE surgery does not create a flap in the corneal tissue, it’s an ideal procedure for patients who live active lifestyles or work in physically demanding occupations. 👉 SMILE can be faster, with a smoother recovery. Because it only requires one laser, it can often be completed even quicker than LASIK, and for many patients, the microincision from SMILE heals sooner. 👉 SMILE is just as successful as LASIK. If SMILE will lead to a smoother experience for you, you can expect the same quality of reliable vision correction. . . . Michael H. Manning, M.D., F.A.C.S., is our lead eye surgeon, a pioneer in the field of refractive surgery, and a vocal proponent of SMILE vision correction. It’s his experience and trust in LASIK that lends such credit to his belief in this new evolution of refractive vision correction, and to his ability to provide the same life-changing results with SMILE that he has with LASIK for so many patients. #lasikalternative #lasiksurgery #lasikeyesurgery #smileeyesurgery #laservisioncorrection #visioncorrection #visionsurgery #patienttestimonial #visioncare #gulfcoasteyecare

Will I still need glasses after cataract surgery?

Intraocular lens implants, known as IOLs, are artificial lenses that serve as replacements for your eyes’ natural lenses once your cataracts are removed. ➡️ Basic cataract surgery with a standard IOL will reverse the effects of cataracts and restore vision. ➡️ With basic cataract surgery, patients will still need glasses for certain activities like driving, reading, or to correct conditions like astigmatism. 🙌 Our practice offers a full range of advanced IOLs that can allow patients to see more clearly for all zones without a heavy reliance on corrective eyewear. 🙌 For patients who would like to experience LASIK-like results, advanced IOLs can correct astigmatism, presbyopia, and vision for all zones!
