If you’ve been struggling with red, irritated, and watery eyes, you know how frustrating it can be to find lasting relief. Over-the-counter drops may help temporarily, but for many people with chronic dry eye, the problem keeps coming back. At Clear View Vision Center, we offer Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy - a proven, non-invasive solution designed to address the root cause of your discomfort.
While occasional redness can be caused by allergies, lack of sleep, or environmental factors, persistent irritation often stems from meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD); a condition where the glands in your eyelids don’t produce enough oil to keep your tears healthy. Without this oil layer, your tears evaporate too quickly, leaving your eyes dry, inflamed, and more prone to redness.
IPL therapy uses gentle pulses of light applied to the skin around your eyes. These pulses:
Reduce inflammation
Unclog blocked meibomian glands
Improve the quality of your tear film
Minimize redness caused by dilated blood vessels
The treatment is quick, comfortable, and requires little to no downtime. Most patients notice improvements within just a few sessions.
Patients at Clear View Vision Center often report:
Reduced redness and irritation
Less dependence on artificial tears
More comfortable, consistent vision throughout the day
Longer-lasting relief compared to temporary solutions
In many cases, the benefits continue to improve over time as the health of the meibomian glands is restored.
Unlike eye drops or compresses, IPL targets the underlying cause of dry eye for lasting results. When combined with ongoing maintenance and personalized dry eye care, many patients experience months of improved comfort.
You don’t have to live with the frustration of red, irritated eyes. With IPL therapy, we can help you achieve real, lasting relief by treating the source of your dry eye discomfort.
