Corneal Neuralgia treatment

If you have recently had refractive surgery LASIK, SMILE, etc.. you may be experiencing dry eye like symptoms or corneal pain. At the Dry Eye Optometry Center of Orange County (at Austin Optometry) we can help determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and ensure you are receiving the most appropriate treatment for your condition. Let us help you differentiate possible corneal neuralgia from dry eye symptoms and get you on your path to recovery and relief from these sometimes debilitating symptoms. We work with UCI Medical Center to offer confocal microscopy which can image the corneal nerves to help with your diagnosis and treatment plan. Treatment may include FDA approved drops for corneal neuralgia, serum tears, amnionic membranes placement (Prokera) , anti-inflammatories or in office treatment.
