A Personalized, Regenerative Approach to Dry Eye Relief

At New York Laser Vision and Aesthetics, we offer autologous serum tear drops as part of our advanced Dry Eye Center. With over 20 years of experience, our team focuses on treating the root causes of dry eye using customized, biologically based therapies that promote healing and restore long-term comfort.

Schedule your consultation today to explore personalized dry eye treatment with autologous serum tear drops.

What Are Autologous Serum Tear Drops?

Autologous serum tear drops are eye drops created from a small sample of your own blood. The serum portion of the blood is separated and processed into sterile eye drops that closely resemble natural tears. Unlike artificial tears, these drops contain essential growth factors, proteins, and nutrients that help nourish and repair the surface of the eye.

Because they are derived from your own body, they are highly biocompatible and well-tolerated.

This makes them an effective option for patients whose symptoms have not improved with standard treatments.

Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?

Autologous serum tear drops are often recommended for patients with more advanced or persistent dry eye symptoms. You may benefit from this treatment if you have:

  • Moderate to severe dry eye disease
  • Ocular surface damage or irritation
  • Inflammation that has not responded to traditional therapies
  • Chronic symptoms such as burning, redness, or blurred vision

This treatment is especially helpful for patients who need more than temporary relief and are looking for a solution that supports healing at a deeper level.

How the Autologous Serum Tear Drop Treatment Works

The process begins with a simple blood draw. The blood is then processed in a controlled environment to isolate the serum, which is diluted and prepared into eye drops for personal use. When applied to the eyes, these drops:

  • Provide natural lubrication similar to your own tears
  • Deliver growth factors that promote healing
  • Help repair damaged cells on the ocular surface
  • Reduce inflammation and improve overall comfort

Because the drops are tailored to your biology, they offer a more targeted and effective approach than standard over-the-counter options.

Using Autologous Serum Tear Drops

Autologous serum tear drops are often part of a broader treatment strategy designed to address the underlying causes of dry eye. At New York Laser Vision and Aesthetics, we may combine this therapy with other advanced treatments such as IPL, amniotic membrane therapy, or specialized lenses to achieve more complete and lasting results.

Proper storage is important, as the drops are often kept refrigerated or frozen to maintain their effectiveness. We provide clear guidance on how to incorporate them into your daily routine and monitor your progress over time.
