What is Intense Pulsed Light Therapy?
At Ginsberg Eye, we use Lumecca IPL therapy to help patients who struggle with dry eyes. IPL stands for intense pulsed light and emits light targeted at the skin around the eyelids. The light is then absorbed by the pigment and blood vessels in the area and goes on to reduce inflammation and ensure the glands that produce tears are able to function properly again.
After your treatment session, you can go back to your daily routine immediately. You may have some redness, but it will fade in a few hours.
