Soothe Dry, Itchy Eyes Caused By Skin and Eyelid Inflammation
Do you suffer from dry, itchy, red, or burning eyes? This may be caused by skin and eyelid inflammation, known as blepharitis, a condition that causes inflammation in the oil glands of your eyelids, which affects millions of Americans every year.
Many patients who suffer from irritated, swollen eyelids also suffer from other inflammatory ocular conditions–like dry eyes. While this condition does not lead to permanently impaired vision, it is still difficult for patients to live with.
If this is you, you are likely desperate for relief—and the answer may be advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment from Ophthalmic Physicians Incorporated.
Ophthalmic Physicians Incorporated Offers Intense Pulsed Light Technology
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment administers light pulses to the affected and surrounding areas. The light energy shrinks blood vessels in the eyelids, decreasing inflammation and improving the function of the meibomian glands in the eyelid—these are the glands that help produce tears needed to lubricate your eyes. After the treatment, the meibomian glands are expressed and cleared of any blockage, allowing for improved tear flow and relief of dry eyes.
If you suffer from dry eyes, reach out to Ophthalmic Physicians Incorporated to schedule a consultation with our team. We will provide more information about IPL treatments and determine whether this treatment is right for you.
