IPL is an advanced treatment and prevention of dry eye disease. With controlled light energy applied directly onto the face and eyelids, IPL reduces facial and peri-ocular inflammation which is the driving force of dry eye disease.
Facial inflammation is what triggers dry eye disease and, left untreated, will progress it into painful dry eyes. That’s why, in order to treat the disease, we must treat the inflammation.
If you notice redness anywhere on your face, you may have facial and peri-ocular inflammation that will lead to dry eye disease. Schedule an appointment with one of our dry eye specialists to see if you are a candidate for IPL treatment.
