WE STYLE THE STARS IN OUR BOUTIQUE
When I first walked into Dr. Brisco's office in early October, I'd been suffering through over five months of bloodshot eyes with blurry vision, sties, extreme dryness, watering/stinging, and crusting along the lashes. What had started as slightly pink but unbothersome eyes had turned into an alarming sight and an interruption to daily life. I'd already seen four other eye doctors in Boston over the course of the five months, who each seemed to glean only a piece of the puzzle, and immediately prescribed me over-the-counter or prescription eye drops, night gels, warm compresses, antibiotic drops, and steroid eye drops. Some of these treatments seemed to help, but only short-term, with immediate redness upon cessation, while others exacerbated the condition.
I moved to LA in mid-September. With a newfound determination to heal myself naturally and the added hope that the relocation would eliminate at least some environmental aggressors, I spent hours trying to diagnose myself (with blepharitis, at least one of the problems Dr. Brisco would later confirm), and countless natural home remedies. There was a brief moment where all of my home treatments (saline eye washes, neti pot irrigations, turmeric supplements, flaxseed oil supplements, magnesium bath soaks, multivitamins, castor oil on the lids, medicinal grade manuka honey eye drops, chamomile tea bags on the eyes, etc., etc...) seemed to work, but this was short-lived. The condition came back full blown. I was incredibly disheartened, to say the least.
In a last-ditch effort, I googled "holistic eye doctor Los Angeles," and Hollywood Vision Center appeared in one of the top search results. Intrigued by their "dry eye spa" offering, I booked an appointment that same week.
Fast forward to early December: my eyes are now completely white, and there are zero signs of crusting or sties. Dr. Brisco was able to accurately diagnose me, with several conditions that the previous doctors had missed, and she recognized the need for alternative treatments that were safer and more effective. I went in for a handful of appointments, where she and her staff made me feel comfortable, optimistic, and in good hands. Dr. Brisco's commitment to the healing of my eyes and holistic approach to my care, combined with the relaxing Dry Eye Spa offered at the Center and the various at-home treatments she prescribed, have dramatically improved my eyes and ended my suffering. It was the blend of Dr. Brisco's background in Western medicine, comprehensive ophthalmic research, and expertise in holistic and homeopathic/naturopathic medicine that cured me.

When dealing with dry eyes, many people resort to utilizing over-the-counter eye drops to relieve their symptoms. Dry eyes can come about due to weather conditions, they can come about from long bouts of sitting in front of the computer.
Integrative medicine combines the best of both worlds by using both conventional and natural or complementary medicine to address health issues and the underlying causes.
