OPTILIGHT BY LUMENIS
OptiLIGHT Dry Eye Treatment in Kingsley, MI
FDA-Approved, Non-Invasive Relief for Dry Eye at Kingsley Family Vision Care
If you suffer from burning, gritty, or watery eyes, you may be dealing with chronic dry eye disease. One of the leading causes is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), which prevents your eyes from producing healthy tears.
At Kingsley Family Vision Care, we are proud to offer OptiLIGHT by Lumenis—the first and only FDA-approved Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment for dry eye caused by MGD. This advanced therapy targets the root cause of evaporative dry eye and provides lasting relief without relying solely on daily artificial tears.
Why Choose OptiLIGHT for Dry Eye Relief?
- Clinically Proven Results – Backed by clinical studies and FDA approval.
- Treats the Root Cause – Reduces inflammation, improves oil gland function, and stabilizes tears.
- Quick & Comfortable – Sessions take about 10–15 minutes with no downtime.
- Long-Term Benefits – Many patients experience lasting relief after just a few treatments.
How OptiLIGHT Works
OptiLIGHT uses gentle, precise pulses of light applied to the skin around the eyes to:
- Reduce inflammation and abnormal blood vessels that worsen dry eye
- Restore natural oil flow from the meibomian glands
- Kill bacteria and reduce Demodex mites that block healthy tear production
- Improve the overall stability of your tears
What to Expect During Treatment
- Preparation – Protective shields are placed over your eyes, and a cooling gel is applied.
- Light Therapy – Quick, gentle flashes of light are delivered to the area around your eyelids.
- Post-Treatment – Minimal discomfort, no downtime, and you can resume normal activities right away.
Most patients benefit from a series of four sessions, spaced 2–4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 6–12 months.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
OptiLIGHT is ideal for patients with evaporative dry eye from meibomian gland dysfunction. It may not be suitable for individuals with:
- Severe tear deficiency (aqueous dry eye)
- Certain skin conditions or sensitivities
- Recent eye surgery
Your eye doctor will evaluate your eyes and health history to determine if OptiLIGHT is the best solution for you.
