Dry Eye Evaluation
For mild to moderate dry eye
Sometimes, over-the-counter eyedrops just aren't enough to keep your contacts comfortable or to prevent discomfort after a long day on computers. Our basic evaluation includes a thorough history, assessment of the structures in the front of the eye, their function, and quantitative measurements of your tears. Your Eyewell doctor compiles a summary of findings with recommendations for a structured management plan that is also provided to your eye doctor.
Extensive Dry Eye Evaluation
For moderate to severe dry eye or if you have not had a good response to treatment
For more complex patients, or for those who have failed treatment. This is a deep dive into all of the possible causes for your dry eye including a systemic screen for other conditions that can contribute to ocular surface disease. Your Eyewell doctor interprets the data and suggests structured recommendations for treatment that is shared with your primary eye care or other referring provider.
Surgical Preparation Package

Results of your testing profile inform personalized management strategies
Eyewell provides a holistic, personalized approach tailored to your unique needs. Our team developed diagnostic and treatment protocols founded on the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society (TFOS) Dry Eye Workshop II and Lifestyle Report which both unified the scientific and clinical community around common understandings of dry eye disease and facilitated improved patient care.
Your comprehensive treatment plan may include in-office treatments, home self-care, medications, lifestyle adjustments, or even surgery, ensuring every aspect of your care is thoughtfully considered.
Our Fees
Eyewell is a self-pay facility. Why? Because it has to be.
- Although dry eye disease is one of the most common reasons that patients seek medical eye care, insurance coverage does not exist for clinically proven dry eye treatments (Lipiflow, IPL, ILux, TearCare, Radio Frequency, Rinsada, Blephex, and comprehensive eyelid cleanings, amniotic membranes, scleral lenses, moisture chamber glasses) and often will not cover the cost for most common medications used to treat dry eye disease (Restasis, Xiidra, Cequa, Veveye, Miebo, Tryvaya, Xdemvy, Eysuvis).
- Insurance reimbursements do not cover the cost of providing care. To survive, clinics are forced to schedule a patient every 15 minutes. This is why you get 10 minutes with your exhausted doctor after hours in a crowded waiting room. Our founders reject this model. We needed to stop the circus and spend adequate time with our patients.
- By collaborating with your primary eye care provider, Eyewell helps you maximize coverage for follow-up visits. We supply receipts for our services that you should submit to your insurance for out-of-network reimbursement. Any non-reimbursed payments should apply to insurance deductibles. These receipts should be kept for tax deduction purposes.
- Because we don't use insurance, we don't need to pay an administrative team to process claims. We pass these savings directly on to our patients. Eyewell's exam fees are much less than what you would pay for seeing a dry eye expert if you have not met your deductible. Our procedure fees are equal to or less than the average for the same services in the Boston Metro area.
- We are committed to putting patients in control of their healthcare spending. So, we made paying for services with Eyewell simple- just like paying for a haircut. All of our fees are transparent and listed on our scheduling portal. You know what your financial responsibility will be when you schedule. Period. If you have questions, just call us before you book. With Eyewell, YOU get to decide whether to pay for treatment and will never be surprised later with a large bill.
Say goodbye to chaotic overcrowded waiting rooms, ten minute appointments, hidden costs, confusing insurance statements, prior authorizations, and referral requirements.
