You put in eye drops, and for a few minutes, your eyes feel better. Then that familiar burning returns. It's like your tears are vanishing before they can do their job.
The problem isn't that you don't make enough tears—it's that they're draining away too quickly through your tear ducts, leaving your eyes dry and uncomfortable all day long.
When your natural tears drain too quickly, you're not just dealing with discomfort—you're putting your eye health at risk. Your eyes are vulnerable.
Most patients are amazed at how comfortable punctal plugs are. These tiny devices are designed to fit naturally in your tear ducts without causing any sensation. You won't feel them, see them, or even remember they're there—you'll just notice that your eyes feel more comfortable throughout the day.
Properly placed plugs stay secure but can be removed by Dr. Klute if needed
You can choose temporary or semi-permanent options
Punctal plugs don't interfere with vision in any way
Semi-permanent plugs can be easily removed
