About Aelo


As optometrists, we've experienced the problem, understand the problem and live to solve and provide treatment for the problem.

We have seen the devastating effects of dry eyes and how chronic this condition can become. Our patients look to us to identify the culprit for their dry eyes, but we are often limited by the products available and accessible on the market. Additionally, there is no consistency in advice and information available.

At Aelo, we are changing the way people take care of their dry eyes so it becomes part of their self-care routine.
