At Dry Eye WA, we believe effective treatment begins with a thorough understanding of the problem. That’s why we use Antares, a state-of-the-art corneal topographer and ocular surface analyser, to provide detailed insights into the health of your eyes.
Antares helps us go beyond surface symptoms to diagnose the root causes of Dry Eye Syndrome, ensuring every treatment plan is targeted, personalised, and effective.
Antares is a high-definition diagnostic imaging system designed to assess both the structure and function of the eye’s surface. It allows us to evaluate tear quality, measure tear film stability, and assess Meibomian gland function with incredible precision—all in a quick, non-invasive exam.
Using advanced imaging and analysis tools, Antares allows us to evaluate:
Tear film break-up time – how quickly tears evaporate from the eye’s surface.
Meibomian gland imaging – identifying gland blockages or atrophy.
Tear meniscus height – measuring tear volume.
Lipid layer thickness – assessing the oil layer of the tear film.
Blink analysis – identifying incomplete or inefficient blinking patterns.
Corneal topography – mapping the shape of the cornea to detect abnormalities.
Ocular surface inflammation – highlighting areas of redness or irritation.
Dry Eye Syndrome can have multiple causes, including:
Incomplete blinking.
Eyelid inflammation (blepharitis or demodex infestation).
Environmental or lifestyle factors.
Antares helps us pinpoint the specific cause of your symptoms so we can recommend the most effective treatments; whether that’s Blephasteam, Blephex, medicated eye drops, nutritional support, or lifestyle adjustments.
The scan is quick, painless, and non-invasive.
No eye drops or contact lenses are required.
High-resolution images and analysis are available immediately.
Results are reviewed with you during your consultation.
