If you regularly suffer from sore, tired, watery or itchy eyes, you could be one of the millions affected by Dry Eye Syndrome. At Ben Mirkin Opticians in North West London, our dedicated Dry Eye Clinic provides expert care and personalised treatment plans to help you find long-term relief.
Dry eye isn’t just uncomfortable — left untreated, it can affect your vision, eye health, and quality of life. Whether your symptoms are mild or more severe, our experienced team is here to help.
What Is Dry Eye?
Dry Eye Syndrome (also known as ocular surface disease) occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears, or when the quality of your tears isn’t good enough to keep your eyes properly lubricated. It’s a common and often chronic condition, especially in adults over 40, screen users, contact lens wearers, and people with certain medical conditions or allergies.
Common symptoms include:
- Gritty, sandy or burning sensations
- Redness or soreness
- Blurred or fluctuating vision
- Excessive watering (a reflex to dryness)
- Sensitivity to light
- Eye fatigue or discomfort, especially after screen time

Your appointment will include:
- A detailed symptom review and lifestyle discussion
- A thorough examination of your eyes, lids, and tear quality
- Identification of whether your dry eye is evaporative, aqueous-deficient, or a combination
- A tailored treatment and management plan based on your individual needs
Treatment may include:
- Lubricating eye drops and heat masks
- Lid hygiene routines and anti-inflammatory treatments
