How Digital Devices Cause Dry Eye and What You Can Do About It

Digital screens are woven into nearly every part of modern life - from work and school to entertainment and communication.

What to Expect During and After a LipiFlow® Treatment

Dry eye symptoms like burning, irritation, and fluctuating vision can make even simple daily tasks uncomfortable.

Is Your Contact Lens Choice Causing Dry Eye?

At Lake Lanier Eye Care, we take a personalized approach to ensure your lenses fit precisely and enhance your everyday vision experience.
