Advanced Dry Eye Treatment

You can experience dry eyes due to several factors. That's why it's important for you to visit our ophthalmologist if you experience dry eyes. We can perform several different diagnostic ophthalmology tests to diagnose the cause. Once diagnosed, we can suggest the right advanced treatment option to treat your dry eyes.

Here are some of the advanced dry eye disease treatments we provide.

LipiFlow

If you suffer from Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), LipiFlow treatment may be right for you. This treatment utilizes controlled heat and gentle pressure to treat blocked Meibomian glands. The in-office procedure typically takes about 12 minutes. Talking to our ophthalmologist can help you understand the benefits and risks of LipiFlow treatment.

BlephEX

BlephEx is a painless procedure using a patented handpiece to remove toxins and bacteria from the edges of your eyelids and eyelashes. It's used to treat patients experiencing blepharitis. Finally, the treatment only takes a small amount of time.

Prokera

Prokera uses amniotic tissue to heal damaged eye surfaces. It's inserted just like a contact lens. While inserted, it reduces inflammation and scarring, which alleviates dry eyes. Prokera uses tissue that is regulated by the FDA to ensure safety and effectiveness.
