What is photobiomodulation treatment?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Photobiomodulation is a non-invasive, painless technique used to treat dry eye and Meibomian gland dysfunction. This technology can also be used to treat styes, chalazia, and blepharitis. <\/span><\/p>

Photobiomodulation uses different wavelengths of light delivered through a mask placed over the face. Red light stimulates the production of ATP (cellular energy) as well as elastin and collagen, while blue light has a bactericidal effect. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What are the benefits of photobiomodulation treatment?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The treatment can clear up recently formed styes and chalazia. It also prevents the development of new styes or chalazia. It treats blepharitis and is particularly effective when preceded by Zest\u00ae therapy. The heat causes the oil contained in the Meibomian glands to liquefy. Manual expression of the glands is performed following exposure to red light. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
