Intense Pulsed Light treatment for dry eye utilizes pulses of light to liquefy and release hardened oils that have clogged meibomian glands in the eyelids. IPL also affects vascularization and inflammation of the eyelids, reducing eyelid redness and stimulating healthy gland function.

Common treatments for dry eye disease such as artificial tears, eyelid scrubs, and hot compresses focus on temporarily relieving symptoms instead of treating the cause of the condition. IPL therapy is designed to address the root cause of dry eye.
