Why Dry Eyes Water
The most common reason patients are told their eyes cannot be dry — and why that reasoning is precisely backwards.

Care across the whole of the eye
Cataract surgeon, cornea and dry eye specialist, and a children's eye service — each area supported by the scans needed to reach a precise diagnosis rather than a probable one.
About
A practice built on examination and explanation
Dr. Aysun Yucel Gencoglu is a specialist ophthalmologist practising in Dubai. Her consultations are designed to allow time for careful examination, detailed explanation and informed decision-making.
Time to listen
Appointments allow time for the full history. The detail that leads to a diagnosis is often the one mentioned in passing.
Examination with a purpose
Each investigation is chosen because its result will inform a decision, and you are told what it is looking for beforehand.
Findings shown, not summarised
Your scans are reviewed with you on the screen. A diagnosis you have seen is easier to understand, to remember and to discuss at home.
Decisions grounded in evidence
Recommendations follow published evidence and your own measurements. Where the options are genuinely balanced, you will be told that too.
Your Visit
What to expect when you come in
Care arranged so that nothing is rushed, nothing is assumed, and nothing is decided without you.
One
The conversation
Ninety minutes for a first visit, beginning with how your vision affects your day rather than how it measures on a chart.
Two
The examination
Scans of the retina, cornea and optic nerve as your symptoms require, reviewed with you on the screen while they are taken.
Three
The plan
Your options set out with their advantages and their trade-offs, including the option of doing nothing for now. You leave with a written summary.
Four
The follow-through
The same doctor performs any procedure and sees you afterwards, with review dates agreed in advance and a direct route back for anything urgent.
