Inflammation and dry eyes are cyclical. When the tissues around the eyes are inflamed, the eyes can’t produce a healthy tear film. Without a healthy tear film, the eyes become dry and irritated. When the eyes are dry and irritated, the tissues around the eyes become inflamed. The cycle just repeats itself over and over from there.
It’s not uncommon for skin conditions like ocular rosacea to trigger this cycle.
We perform IPL by applying a specific wavelength of light to your eyelids, which is then absorbed by certain blood vessels. The light seals these blood vessels, which reduces inflammation.
The light energy may also improve your tear film by warming up the meibomian glands, which helps your eyes produce a healthier tear film.
Patients usually require more than one treatment to get the best results. You should notice a difference within 2 weeks of your second treatment.
