LipiFlow
LipiFlow is a revolutionary treatment for dry eyes caused by Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. If you’re experiencing itchy, scratchy eyes or blurred vision and have been diagnosed with MGD, LipiFlow may be the right treatment for you.
Our team of optometrists is specially trained to deliver effective LipiFlow treatments in the comfort of our office. The process is minimally invasive, using the gentle application of heat and massage to reduce blockages in the meibomian glands. This enables your glands to increase the production of oil-based lubricants that prevent tears from drying too quickly. The result is a significant reduction in irritating dry eye symptoms.
LipiFlow is quick and the treatment can be completed in under an hour. We use a mild anesthetic to ensure the process is comfortable. During treatment, we’ll ask you to sit in a reclining chair and to keep your eyes closed during most of the procedure. Patients typically report feeling some heat and gentle pressure but no pain, and most clients see results in just a few weeks.
Lethbridge Vision Care is pleased to be one of the few local providers of this ground-breaking new treatment for evaporative dry eyes caused by MGD. Book an appointment with us to find out if your dry eye symptoms are caused by MGD and if LipiFlow is the right treatment for you.
