The types of symptoms that patients should be concerned about are the ones that affect their vision. We treat:

• Dry eyes: At Wichita Optometry, we specialize in treating dry eyes and their symptoms. Dry eyes include watery, red eyes that feel scratchy and uncomfortable. Dry eyes are caused by several factors, including age, illness, eye strain, allergies, diabetes, insufficient tear production, or hormonal changes..
• Cataracts: Cataracts make your vision cloudy and usually develop slowly over time. Cataract symptoms include blurry vision, which can get worse.
• Eye allergies: Depending on what season your eyes are exposed to, your eyes might turn red, look tired, or have discharge. This is normal for allergies. However, some allergies might not be so simple.
• Glaucoma: Glaucoma is an eye disease that affects vision and optic nerves. Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness, particularly in people over 60 years of age.
