Treatments

In our Dry Eye Center, we will conduct a series of evaluations and determine the likely cause of your Dry Eye symptoms. If the evaluations indicate symptoms beyond mild, we will proceed with LipiView®. This technology allows the physician to evaluate the lipid (oil) layer on your eye. Following these evaluations, we will then determine whether or not you have Evaporative Dry Eye or Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and if you are a candidate for LipiFlow®.

Lipiflow® applies a combination of heat and pulsatile pressure to open your Meibomian glands. Many find a single treatment effective in relieving the symptoms of Dry Eye. With LipiFlow® — and regular checks and ongoing care to monitor your progress – let us help you experience Dry Eye relief like never before.
