Discover a non-invasive treatment using blue light for its antibacterial properties and red light to stimulate cell regeneration, offering fast relief and lasting comfort for your eyes.
It’s for me if…
I have one or more styes or chalazions accompanied by blepharitis and/or meibomian gland dysfunction.
Contraindications
Taking photosensitizing medications and epilepsy (treatment must be adjusted accordingly).
Duration
2 to 4 sessions of 15 to 30 minutes each, depending on the severity of the condition.
Cost
$250 to $300, if the treatment is performed alone or in combination with another technology.
Photobiomodulation is a non-invasive, painless technique for the treatment of dry eye and meibomian gland dysfunction. The technology can also be used to treat styes, chalazions and blepharitis.
Photobiomodulation uses different wavelengths through a mask that is placed on the face. Red light stimulates the production of ATP (cellular energy) and the production of elastin and collagen, while blue light has a bactericidal effect.
The treatment can make recently formed styes and chalazions disappear. It also prevents the appearance of new styes or chalazions. It treats blepharitis and is particularly effective if preceded by a Zest® treatment. Heat liquefies the oil contained in the Meibomius glands. Manual expression of the glands follows exposure to red light.
