"I came to visit Rome from Hungary with my girlfriend but one night after eating sushi we were feeling very sick. Fortunately a friend of mine who lives in Rome knew Elisa and her Medical Clinic for tourists so we contacted her and she replied almost immediately and booked an appointment to the next day. I can’t tell enough how professional she was with me and Zsófia (my girlfriend), she prescribed to us some medication and gave us many good advices to make us feel better soon. Thank you Elisa! See you soon :)"

"My wife developed a worrying reaction to an insect bite on her face. Dr Rossi administered an injection and treatment which helped and put my wife's mind at rest. Very professional, helpful and pleasant."

Brian O'Toole

"When I fell ill on my visit to Rome from the US, I was able to make an appointment with Dr. Rossi on the same day & in 20 minutes from the phone call. The appointment took about 15 minutes and Dr. Rossi was professional and thorough, and prescribed me the medication I needed. I was able to walk across the street and fill the prescription in under 10 minutes. I was amazed at the ease of it all, (& truly puts the US medical system to shame)."

How are dry eyes treated at ReadyHelp?

At ReadyHelp, we focus on providing personalized care to treat dry eye. Our goal is to address your specific symptoms and help you feel better. When you visit, our dry eye doctor will first talk to you about your condition. This helps us understand how your dry eyes affect you and what might be causing them.

Based on our learning, the doctor will suggest your best treatment plan. For many people, simple changes in daily habits can make a big difference. This might include using over-the-counter eye drops to add moisture to your eyes. We may recommend prescription medications as part of your dry eye therapy if needed.

In some cases, our doctor may suggest more advanced treatments like punctal plugs. These tiny devices help keep your tears in your eyes longer, offering more comfort. The doctor may also recommend tips for eyelid hygiene, such as cleaning your eyelids to remove oil or debris that could be causing your eyes to feel dry.

Our English-speaking GP also recommends avoiding things that worsen your dry eyes. For example, avoiding smoke, dust, and other irritants can help protect your eyes. The doctor will guide you on how to keep your eyes healthy, including taking regular breaks from screen time or using a humidifier in dry environments.

If you need follow-up care, we’re here for you. We’ll check how you’re doing and adjust your treatment plan if necessary. Whether you’re a tourist or living in Rome, we’re committed to helping you find the relief you need.

ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQ

What is the cost of dry eye treatment?

The cost of dry eye treatment varies depending on the severity and complexity of your case. Some medical treatments for dry eyes, like eye drops or lifestyle changes, may be more affordable, while others, like prescription medications or advanced therapies, might cost a bit more.

Does eye massage help dry eyes?

Yes, gentle eyelid massage can help with dry eyes. Massaging the eyelids stimulates the oil glands in your eyes, which can help improve tear production. This helps prevent your tears from evaporating too quickly and can relieve discomfort. It’s important to use gentle pressure and avoid rubbing your eyes harshly. Our dry eye doctor can guide you on how to do this correctly for the best results.

What not to do with dry eyes?

If you have dry eyes, you should avoid a few things. First, never rub your eyes, as this can worsen the irritation. Rubbing can also cause more damage to your eyes. It’s also important to avoid harsh chemicals, such as strong cleaning products, which can irritate your eyes. Lastly, avoid wearing contact lenses for too long, as they can worsen dry eye symptoms. If you wear contact lenses, follow ReadyHelp’s doctor’s advice on how long to wear them safely.

Can dry eyes cause blurred vision?

Yes, dry eyes can sometimes cause blurred vision. When your eyes don’t have enough moisture, the tear film on the eye’s surface becomes uneven, making your vision blurry. This is usually temporary and can be improved by using eye drops or other treatments to keep your eyes moist. If blurred vision persists, it’s a good idea to speak with a ReadyHelp dry eye doctor to find out the best treatment for your condition.

How long does dry eye treatment take to show results?

The time it takes to see results from dry eye treatment can vary. For some people, over-the-counter eye drops or lifestyle changes can provide relief within a few days. However, more advanced treatments, like prescription medications or punctual plugs, might take a few weeks to show full benefits. It’s important to be patient and follow your doctor’s advice for the best results. If your symptoms don’t improve, our doctor can adjust the treatment plan.

Are there home remedies for dry eyes?

Yes, there are a few simple home remedies you can try to help with dry eyes. Using a humidifier in your home can keep the air moist, which helps prevent your eyes from drying out. Taking regular breaks from looking at screens can also reduce eye strain. Applying a warm compress to your eyes can help loosen any oils blocking your tear glands. Additionally, drinking plenty of water helps keep your body and eyes hydrated. If these remedies don’t provide enough relief, it’s best to consult with ReadyHelp dry eye doctor for further treatment.
