About Us

 

We offer the widest range of Dry eye service:

Intense Pulse Light (IPL) by Lumenis including Top eyelids if needed, the only FDA cleared IPL for dry eye

Low light level therapy (LLLT),  red light treatment post IPL or standalone, generates the correct energy for expression, great for chalazion

Meibomian Gland Probing, unique technique with a 2-4mm probe inserted into each gland to break scar tissue. Our most popular treatment, particular for failed IPL results, Accutane history and general non-responders to typical treatment.

Manual expression, done after LLLT to express the oils out.

Punctal Plugs. Good for aqueous dry eye.

Amniotic Membrane lenses. A wonder lens for those who do not show typical dry eye signs or post LASIK or Cataract dry eye. Mostly for recurrent corneal erosion and scarring. You would wear this lens for 7-14 days to heal the cornea.

ZEST clean. Okra based solutions to lift microbes

BlephEx. Mechanical brush to lift heavy blepharitis

Lid Debridement. Remove keratin from the eye lid margins

Medicine prescribing. Most require some form of topical medicine to settle the eyes pre and post treatment.

Scleral Contact lenses. Useful to hold moisture, very good outcome for keratoconus patient

Assessment:

We undertake a smooth and concise assessment to help identify your dry eye causes. Using our knowledge and vast equipment we can guide you with options for treatment.
