PRP Eye Drops for Dry Eye in Katy, TX

How autologous PRP drops work

A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed to concentrate the platelets and plasma that carry natural growth factors, proteins, and nutrients. These are prepared into sterile eye drops that are uniquely yours — 'autologous' simply means they come from your own body.

Because they are derived from your blood, PRP drops closely resemble the biological makeup of natural tears far more than any over-the-counter product. They contain none of the preservatives that can irritate an already-damaged surface.

Growth factors and corneal nerve regeneration

The growth factors in PRP do more than lubricate. They actively promote healing of the corneal surface and support regeneration of the delicate corneal nerves that give the eye its sensation and drive healthy tear production.

This makes PRP especially valuable for patients with persistent corneal surface damage, neurotrophic dry eye, and cases that have not responded to standard drops — situations where the surface needs to genuinely heal, not just be moistened.

Are PRP drops safe?

Because they are made from your own blood, PRP drops carry no risk of the allergic or preservative reactions sometimes seen with commercial products, and no risk of disease transmission from a donor. They are prepared under careful, sterile conditions. Dr. Wells reviews your history and eye health to confirm PRP is appropriate before recommending it, and your consultation determines dosing and duration.
