​​​​​​​How iLux Benefits Patients with Dry Eye

For patients suffering from chronic dry eye, iLux offers relief by addressing the root cause of the issue. When the meibomian glands are blocked, the tear film becomes unstable and leads to irritation, redness, and blurry vision. iLux treatment helps restore the natural balance of the tear film, providing long-lasting comfort. This non-invasive procedure is quick, typically completed in less than 20 minutes, and allows patients to resume their daily activities immediately after.

The Importance of an Eye Exam

Before undergoing iLux therapy, it is essential to have a comprehensive eye exam and/or a complete dry eye evaluation. During the exam, our optometrists will assess the health of your eyes, the severity of your dry eye condition, and determine if iLux is the right solution for you. Regular check-ups are critical in identifying conditions like Meibomian Gland Dysfunction early, allowing for more effective treatment and management of symptoms.

Preventative Care and Long-Term Eye Health

Preventative care is crucial in maintaining eye health and avoiding long-term complications. Early detection of issues like dry eye syndrome can prevent further deterioration and reduce the risk of damage to the ocular surface. Incorporating iLux as part of your dry eye management plan, along with regular check-ups and following our eye doctors’ recommendations, ensures that your eyes remain healthy and reduces comfort.
