IPL Treatment for Dry eye
Dry eye syndrome is characterised by a chronic insufficiency in tear production and ocular surface hydration. This condition can result in a spectrum of symptoms, from persistent ocular irritation to significant inflammation and corneal scarring. It is a prevalent disorder and a leading cause for consultations with ophthalmologists.
Let Us Answer Your Questions and Address Your Concerns
Surya Eye Treats Dry Eyes with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a painless procedure which uses light to break the buildup of oil or other debris blocking the Meibomian Glands.
Symptoms tend to affect both eyes, and can include:
- Burning and red eyes
- Feelings of soreness, grittiness or dryness, which get worse as the day goes on
- Eyelids that are often stuck together when you wake up in a morning
- Blurred vision, which is better after you’ve blinked
- Periods of excess tears, which follows a dry spell
- Heavy eyelids
- Uncomfortable sensations when wearing your contact lenses
- Struggling to read or carry out tasks that require extended periods of concentration with your eyes
- Stringy discharge
Have you been frustrated with the need for frequent eye drop use in your attempt to control your symptoms?
At Surya Eye Hospital, we offer a revolutionary treatment using Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT) to get rid of the root cause of your dry, red, fatigued and burning eyes and help your eyes feel calm and clear – while reducing your dependency on eye drops.
How does it work?
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is an advanced method for treating eyelid inflammation. IPL targets the haemoglobin in abnormal blood vessels, eliminating them through thrombolysis and thereby reducing a significant source of eyelid inflammation.
The procedure involves administering precise light pulses that penetrate the skin and address the underlying cause of inflammation. As IPL enhances your overall skin appearance, it simultaneously treats and improves eyelid inflammation. IPL treatments are highly effective, gentle, and safe.
Benefits of IPL Treatments for Dry Eye:
- Treats the root cause of the problem, not just the symptoms
- Provides long-term relief
- The procedure is safe, comfortable and quick, with no downtime
- Reduces your dependency on eye drop
This treatment is safe, with no discomfort or downtime, and will improve the comfort of your eyes and the clarity of your vision.
During the Procedure After the Procedure
- You might experience a warm sensation as the light is applied to your skin, but the treatment is gentle and you should not feel uncomfortable.
- Each session lasts approximately 15 minutes.
- Depending upon the severity of your condition, an additional procedure to remove a portion of your Meibomian glands, to accelerate your skin and eyelid healing process, may be recommended.
- Immediately following treatment, you may experience some redness and discomfort in the treated areas, which usually disappears within a few hours.
- Most patients resume their daily activities the same day. Sunlight should be avoided for a few days following the treatment and sun screen should be used.
- For optimal results, 5 sessions are typically recommended, with 3-4 weeks in between. Maintenance treatments, usually once every 6-12 months, are also recommended for optimal long-term results.
