eye allergies, conjunctivitis and
blepharitis (inflamed eyes).

eye and ocular surface disease expert.

experience working in ophthalmology
clinics to establish a Dry Eye, Red Eye

well as opportunities to access new
treatments for chronic eye irritation.
The clinic also provides diagnostic
and management services for other
chronic eye disease problems such
glaucoma, macular degeneration
and diabetic eye disease.
