TearLab

Recently, Solinsky EyeCare has acquired the TearLab Osmolarity System which is the latest technology in diagnosing dry eye disease. The TearLab Osmolarity System is designed to measure the osmolarity or the amount of salt, in a patient’s tears. Best of all it only needs a very small sample and it only takes 20 seconds to calculate the osmolarity. (See a demonstration of the TearLab test). Once the doctor acquires that number, they will be able to prescribe a dry eye treatment that is just right for you. Although not covered by insurance, the tear lab only costs $49 to perform. Solinsky EyeCare is the only practice in Connecticut with this technology. Call to make an appointment today at (860)233-2020.
