Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy is among the more groundbreaking treatments for dry eye and chalazion(styes). IPL is a treatment that targets and reduces inflammatory blood vessels along your lid margins and the heat produced during the treatment helps liquify and release oils that have hardened and clogged the meibomian glands in the eyelids. The results are improved tear film quality and improvement in your dry eye symptoms.

Radio Frequency (RF)

This treatment works by delivering radiofrequency waves to deeply penetrate and heat the eyelids to loosen blockages causing your dry eye symptoms. This treatment promotes a healthy tear film, helping you achieve comfortable vision without symptoms of dry eye.

As an added benefit, it can also promote collagen production in your skin to reduce fine lines and wrinkles giving you a more youthful appearance.
