I treat dry eye very aggressively, with the latest techniques, specifically LipiFlow®, which treats Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), the major cause of Dry Eye.
The LipiFlow® system uses heat and a twelve-minute pressure profile to remove blockages from the Meibomian glands, by heating the glands from the inside, blockages are liquefied. Gentle pressure is applied from outside the lid, from the base of the gland, to the gland opening, removing the blockage and flushing dead cells from the gland.
At the Rochester Eye & Laser Center, we have the technology to treat Meibomian Gland Dysfunction which is a major contributor to Dry Eye.
