A non-invasive treatment option for dry eye symptoms
Book an appointment
Centre Visuel D.R. offers intense pulsed light therapy, an advanced technology that may help improve symptoms associated with dry eye. This non-invasive treatment supports the function of the meibomian glands, which produce the oily layer needed to maintain a stable tear film.
IPL may be recommended for patients experiencing chronic dry eye or persistent discomfort despite using lubricating eye drops and following an eyelid care routine.
Every IPL treatment plan at Centre Visuel D.R. is adapted to the patient’s eye health, symptoms and clinical findings. A comprehensive assessment is required to determine whether this technology is appropriate for you.
Intense pulsed light therapy uses controlled pulses of light applied to the skin around and below the eyes. The light energy may help reduce inflammation and support the function of the meibomian glands. These glands produce the oily layer of the tear film, which helps prevent tears from evaporating too quickly.
La lumière pulsée intense (IPL) utilise des impulsions lumineuses contrôlées appliquées sur la peau autour des yeux. Cette énergie lumineuse aide à réduire l’inflammation et à améliorer la fonction des glandes responsables de la couche huileuse des larmes.
