If your eyes often feel dry, irritated, or fatigued, you’re not alone. Dry eye is a common condition, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with the discomfort. At Knight Vision NW, Dr. Knighton takes a holistic approach to Dry Eye Therapy, focusing on long-term relief rather than just temporary fixes.
We start by identifying the root cause of your symptoms—whether it’s screen time, environmental factors, or underlying health conditions. From there, we tailor a treatment plan that may include specialized eye drops, lifestyle adjustments, in-office treatments, or nutrition-based solutions to help restore your eyes’ natural moisture.
No one-size-fits-all answers—just thoughtful, effective care designed to bring you lasting comfort and clearer vision.
