OUR VISION

WHAT IS DRY EYE?

Dry eye is a common eye condition that occurs when your eyes struggle to produce the right quality or quantity of tears to keep your eyes comfortable.

Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a common source of dry eye, which can cause your tears to evaporate faster than normal. Without treatment, you could increase the risk of developing an eye infection or vision problems.

DRY EYE SYMPTOMS & RISK

It’s important to understand that dry eye can affect everyone differently. Before we provide treatment, we perform a comprehensive dry eye assessment that analyzes your symptoms and risk factors to determine what may cause your discomfort. From here, we personalize a rejuvenating strategy to help provide the relief you need.

  • Watery eyes
  • Irritation
  • Redness
  • Burning
  • Grittiness
  • Scratchiness
  • Blurry vision
  • Windy, smoky, dry environments
  • Certain medications
  • Aging

YOUR VISION IS OUR VISION

FORMA-I RADIOFREQUENCY

Our Forma-I radiofrequency (RF) technology is among our most comprehensive treatments for dry eye, and it can also help address several aesthetic concerns.

This treatment works by delivering radiofrequency waves deep within your skin tissue to help produce heat. When placed on your eyelids, this heat helps loosen blockages in your eyelids causing your dry eye symptoms. This treatment promotes a healthy tear film, helping you achieve comfortable vision without symptoms of dry eye.

Forma-I RF treatments are quick, easy, and convenient, providing you with results in just a few short treatments! It can also promote collagen production in your skin, giving the areas around your eyes a younger, healthier appearance.

IPL THERAPY WINDSOR

LUMECCA INTENSE PULSED LIGHT THERAPY

Lumecca intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy is a comprehensive way to treat and manage dry eye symptoms caused by meibomian gland dysfunction. Lumecca IPL targets the underlying inflammatory processes that can lead or contribute to Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).

During the treatment, we place the Lumecca IPL device over your eyelids where it will deliver gentle pulsations of light energy. The skin on your eyelids absorbs this energy, transforming it into heat, which then loosens and melts away blockages in your eyelids causing dry eye symptoms.

You might experience a slight tingling sensation during your treatment, and you might develop some slight redness in the areas you treat, but this is normal to the process and not a cause for concern.

You could experience results immediately after your appointment, but we typically recommend multiple treatment sessions to help maintain your eye comfort.

Lumecca IPL is also effective for treating a range of aesthetic concerns like age spots, sun damage, rosacea, and varicose veins. It helps by gently heating deep layers of your skin using specific wavelengths of light. While Lumecca IPL cannot be used on every skin type, our team will work with you to determine the best treatment plan.
