OptiLIGHT – Advanced Light Therapy for Dry Eye Relief
At South Shore Vision Care, we’re committed to helping you find lasting relief from dry, irritated eyes. Our team now offers OptiLIGHT, a light-based treatment by Lumenis that targets the root causes of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), one of the leading contributors to dry eye disease.
How OptiLIGHT Works
OptiLIGHT uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to safely deliver precise pulses of light to the skin beneath the eyes. The gentle warmth helps unclog and restore normal function to the meibomian glands, reduce inflammation around the eyes, and improve overall tear film stability and quality. By addressing inflammation at its source and promoting healthy gland function, OptiLIGHT offers lasting improvement in eye comfort—not just temporary relief from dryness.
Benefits of OptiLIGHT Treatment
- Quick, in-office procedure (typically 10–15 minutes per session)
- No downtime — you can return to normal activities right away
- Helps reduce dependency on artificial tears
- Enhances tear film quality for longer-lasting hydration
- Can improve skin texture and appearance around the eyes
Many patients report noticeable improvement after just a few treatments, with maximum results achieved after a personalized treatment plan of four sessions spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
Who Can Benefit from OptiLIGHT
OptiLIGHT is ideal for individuals who experience symptoms such as:
- Dryness, burning, or stinging sensations
- Redness and irritation
- Fluctuating vision or discomfort while reading or using digital screens
- Crusting around the eyelids
If you’ve tried artificial tears or other dry eye treatments without lasting results, OptiLIGHT may offer the relief you’ve been searching for.
