The Hudson Valley's Premier Dry Eye Treatment Center
FDA-approved IPL, RF, and OptiLift therapy in the heart of Orange County
Advanced Dry Eye Care Near Orange County & Hudson Valley
The Last Optical's Dry Eye Spa has become the Hudson Valley's destination for advanced dry eye treatment. Located in Montgomery, NY — centrally positioned in Orange County with easy access from I-84 and Route 17K — we serve patients from Newburgh, Middletown, Goshen, Warwick, Monroe, and communities throughout the greater Hudson Valley region. Our practice is the only facility in the area offering all three advanced treatment modalities: Lumenis OptiLight IPL, radiofrequency therapy, and the OptiLift non-surgical eyelid procedure.
While dry eye disease affects an estimated 16 million Americans, finding specialized treatment outside of major metropolitan areas has historically been a challenge. The Last Optical changed that for the Hudson Valley. Founded by Stacey Plank, a licensed optician since 1998, our Dry Eye Spa combines clinical excellence with a luxury wellness experience. We invested in Lumenis technology — the only FDA-approved IPL system for dry eye management — because our patients deserve the gold standard of care.

What causes dry eye disease?+
The most common cause is meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), where the oil-producing glands in your eyelids become blocked or inflamed. This leads to rapid tear evaporation and the burning, itching, and blurry vision associated with dry eye. Contributing factors include screen time, aging, hormonal changes, certain medications, and environmental conditions. Our evaluation identifies your specific cause so we can recommend the most effective treatment.
