Optiglow and your dry eye
A healthy tear film is essential for lubricating, nourishing, and protecting the eye surface. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and Radiofrequency (RF) are non-invasive, treatments for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) and dry eye that improve tear film quality by reducing inflammation, melting hardened oils in the glands, and promoting better oil expression. IPL reduces inflammation and abnormal blood vessels, while RF uses heat to liquefy blocked glands, providing long-lasting, improved eye comfort.
Real Dry Eye Solutions
Forma-I radiofrequency is highly effective for dry eye, with studies showing 91–94% of patients with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) responding to treatment.
