Low Level Light Therapy

By utilizing gentle wavelengths of light, this non-invasive penetrates deep into the tissues surrounding the eyes, promoting increased blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating the production of natural lubricants. Low level light therapy provides a gentle yet effective approach to relieving the irritation and discomfort of dry eyes, offering much-needed relief for sufferers seeking comfort and clarity.

Tear Care

This innovative approach combines advanced technology with personalized care, offering a tailored solution for each patient's unique needs. Through a combination of heat, pressure, and hydration, tear care therapy stimulates the meibomian glands to produce and release the essential oils necessary for healthy tears. By restoring the lipid layer of the tear film, this therapy helps to stabilize the tear film and prevent evaporation, relieving dryness and discomfort.

Epi C IPL by Essilor

This cutting-edge treatment utilizes bursts of light energy to target the underlying causes of dryness, such as inflammation and dysfunction in the meibomian glands. By precisely targeting these areas, IPL therapy stimulates the production of natural oils and improves the quality of the tear film, restoring moisture and alleviating discomfort.

TearLab
