Dry Eye Wellness Consultation

Expert, Unbiased Guidance for Comfortable, Clear Vision and the Perfect Fit

A Dry Eye Wellness–Focused Telemedicine Visit

If you’ve tried countless eye drops and still struggle with dry eye symptoms, you’re not alone. Many people with chronic dry eye feel frustrated by temporary relief and are looking for answers that go beyond another bottle of drops. Many contact lens users and glasses wearers suffer with blurred vision due to dryness. Dr. Valarie Jerome, OD understands this deeply—and has the knowledge and experience in dry eye care to help patients find long-lasting dry eye relief with less dependence on eye drops.

Dr. Jerome is now accepting new patients for her Dry Eye Wellness Consultation, a virtual dry eye consultation delivered through secure telemedicine. This personalized visit is designed for individuals experiencing dry eye disease, ocular surface discomfort, burning, irritation, fluctuating vision, or eye fatigue who want expert guidance and a clear plan forward.

With extensive experience in diagnosing and managing dry eye disease, Dr. Jerome focuses on identifying the root causes of dry eye, not just treating surface symptoms. Dry eye is complex and often influenced by lifestyle, environment, hormones, systemic health, and inflammation. This consultation takes a dry eye wellness approach, recognizing that effective dry eye care involves the whole person—not just the eyes.

What to Expect From Your Dry Eye Consultation

Telemedicine allows you to receive expert dry eye care from the comfort and convenience of your own home. On the day of your appointment, you’ll receive a text message with a secure link to join your virtual visit with Dr. Jerome. Once connected, you’ll meet one-on-one in a private virtual exam room.

Before and during your consultation, Dr. Jerome will review your intake forms, photos, and any available exam information. Together, you’ll discuss your dry eye symptoms, past treatments, eye drop use, and daily habits that may be contributing to ongoing discomfort.

A Personalized Dry Eye Care Plan

Following your assessment, you’ll receive a customized dry eye care plan designed specifically for your ocular surface needs, lifestyle, and long-term comfort goals. This plan focuses on:

  • Reducing chronic dry eye symptoms
  • Minimizing reliance on eye drops when possible
  • Supporting long-term ocular surface health


You’ll receive clear guidance on the most effective at-home dry eye treatments, education on advanced in-office dry eye treatment options, and recommendations tailored to your situation. If in-office treatment is appropriate, Dr. Jerome can help you identify a local eye care provider who offers the necessary dry eye procedures.
