While these factors can contribute, one of the most overlooked causes of chronic dry eye lies along the edge of the eyelids: telangiectasia. These tiny, enlarged blood vessels are far more than a cosmetic concern. They are often a visible sign of chronic inflammation that can damage the meibomian glands, destabilize the tear film, and contribute to long-term ocular surface disease. At FLOW, our...]]></description><link>https://www.eyesoverdfw.com/post/telangiectasia-dry-eye-eyelid-inflammation</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a406d22d3770ea960eef51a</guid><pubDate>Sun, 28 Jun 2026 01:10:43 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/442595_430000778ce648f3a22ab66885bb9597~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Michelle Carpenter</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why Does My Child’s Vision Keep Getting Worse? Myopia Management for Children]]></title><description><![CDATA[Nearsightedness, also called myopia , is a vision condition where a person can see objects clearly up close but has difficulty seeing things far away. Myopia is becoming increasingly common in children around the world. In the United States, studies estimate that nearly 1 in 11 school-aged children  have myopia. By age 17, that number may increase to as high as 60% of teenagers . Many parents believe glasses are the only solution for nearsightedness. While glasses correct blurry vision, they...]]></description><link>https://www.eyesoverdfw.com/post/why-does-my-child-s-vision-keep-getting-worse-myopia-management-for-children</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69abc361b5dd0587334af02d</guid><pubDate>Tue, 10 Mar 2026 01:50:09 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/442595_b83a984fd02344119002b667b94a2c51~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_480,h_320,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Dr. Justin Obana, O.D.</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why People with Dry Eye Get Styes and How to Prevent Them]]></title><description><![CDATA[A stye  is one of the most common eyelid problems people experience. It appears as a painful red bump along the eyelid , often near the eyelashes, and can look very similar to a small pimple. While many people think a stye is just a random infection, the truth is that styes are often connected to an underlying eye condition called dry eye disease .

The eyes are one of the most densely innervated tissues in the human body. When the tear film becomes unstable, the exposed ocular surface sends constant signals of irritation to the brain. Over time, this persistent discomfort can interfere with daily activities ranging from reading and computer work to driving and...]]></description><link>https://www.eyesoverdfw.com/post/living-with-dry-eye-the-hidden-impact-on-focus-comfort-and-daily-life</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69a9c7345688d2ad80d2d442</guid><pubDate>Thu, 05 Mar 2026 18:23:11 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/442595_2890ef29cb0f448a85dff483323091ca~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_940,h_788,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Michelle Carpenter</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Inflammation, Blood Vessels &#38; the Eyelid Margin: What’s Really Causing Your Dry Eye?]]></title><description><![CDATA[Many people believe dry eye occurs simply because the eyes are not producing enough tears.

In reality, most patients with dry eye produce tears — but those tears are unstable. The true issue often lies within the tear film , a delicate three-layer system responsible for protecting the eye, maintaining clear vision, and preserving the health of the ocular surface. Understanding how the tear film works is essential for identifying the root cause of chronic dry eye symptoms and selecting effective treatment.

At  FLOW,  we consider these glands the foundation of lasting dry eye treatment. Because when they fail, the entire tear film collapses.  Let’s break down why. What Are the Meibomian Glands?
