Punctal Plug Placement in Selma, TX
We all suffer from dry eyes, whether from bad allergies, prolonged contact lens wear, or staring at the computer all day. Over-the-counter eye drops and certain prescription eye drops can be very helpful in certain levels of dry eyes, but sometimes it may not be enough to alleviate the symptoms long term.
Dry Eye Treatment
For individuals experiencing chronic dry eyes, our punctal plug placement offers a simple yet effective solution. An optometrist will assess your specific needs and carefully insert tiny plugs into the tear ducts to help retain moisture on the ocular surface. Say goodbye to dry, irritated eyes and enjoy improved comfort throughout the day.
In cases of moderate to severe dry eyes, a piece of collagen called a dissolvable punctal plug can be placed in the tear duct opening to keep the tears longer on the eye surface. For permanent effects, a silicone punctal plug can be placed in the tear duct opening. If this is deemed medically necessary, your medical insurance plan may cover this procedure.
