LACRIFILL®
in Keene
If you struggle with chronic dry eye, LACRIFILL® in Keene could be the solution you’ve been looking for. At New England EyeWorks, we offer the LACRIFILL® procedure to help restore your eyes’ natural moisture. This gentle gel works by sealing the tear ducts to reduce tear drainage, so your eyes stay comfortable and hydrated all day.
What is LACRIFILL®?
LACRIFILL® is a minimally invasive treatment that alleviates dry eye symptoms by blocking the tear drainage system temporarily. Using the LACRIFILL® Canalicular Gel, the procedure involves applying a soft gel plug into your tear ducts (canaliculi). This helps retain your natural tears on the surface of your eyes longer, providing relief from irritation, redness, and dryness.
Unlike traditional punctal plugs, the LACRIFILL® gel adapts to your tear duct, making it comfortable and easy to remove if needed. It offers an effective option for patients seeking relief without surgery or ongoing eye drop use.
How the LACRIFILL® procedure works
The LACRIFILL® procedure is quick and performed right here in our office by one of our experienced eye doctors. After a comprehensive eye exam, we will determine if LACRIFILL® is the right treatment for your dry eyes. If you’re a good candidate, we will gently insert the LACRIFILL® gel into your tear ducts to reduce tear drainage.
This process helps maintain moisture on your eyes, improving comfort and reducing symptoms. Many patients notice relief soon after the treatment and enjoy lasting benefits.
Why choose LACRIFILL® for dry eye treatment?
If you’ve tried traditional dry eye treatments without success, LACRIFILL® provides an advanced option to consider. The dry eye treatment options we offer, including LACRIFILL®, are tailored to your specific needs to help you achieve better eye comfort and health.
With LACRIFILL® gel, you get a natural, reversible treatment that supports your eye’s healing and hydration without daily hassle.
