Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

Gentle Photochromatic Light

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that targets the inflammation and meibomian gland dysfunction often responsible for evaporative dry eye. By improving the function of the oil-producing glands, IPL helps create a healthier, more stable tear film for lasting symptom relief.

How IPL Works

Light energy targets inflammation
Restores meibomian gland function
Healthier tear film

A healthier oil layer slows tear evaporation, resulting in a more stable tear film and improved eye comfort.

Gentle pulses of broad-spectrum light are applied to the skin around the eyes. This energy helps reduce inflammation and targets abnormal blood vessels that contribute to ongoing eyelid inflammation

By reducing inflammation and gently warming the eyelids, IPL helps improve the quality and flow of oils produced by the meibomian glands, reducing blockages and supporting healthier gland function.
