Dry Eye Spa

Over 80% of dry eye issues start at the eyelid margin. Poor eyelid hygiene can lead to symptoms like itching, burning, redness, watering, and a dry, gritty feeling. It can also allow demodex mites (tiny organisms in hair follicles) to block oil glands, worsening inflammation and dryness.

ZEST is like a deep shampoo for your eyes. A natural okra-based gel is applied to your eyelid margins and lashes using a soft cotton swab. The gel is gently worked into a lather, cleaning and exfoliating your eyelids. Once complete, the gel is rinsed off with a saline solution.

The procedure is quick, painless, and provides immediate relief from dry eye symptoms. It also helps to remove dirt and debris, kill demodex mites, and reduce inflammation, addressing the causes of your discomfort.

The procedure clears debris and opens the meibomian glands, allowing natural oils to flow and improve tear production, reducing irritation and redness.

ZEST uses a gel formulated with okra extract to lift away oil and residue while calming inflammation. This natural ingredient is powerful yet safe for the delicate skin around your eyes.

After your treatment, we’ll guide you on how to keep your eyelids clean with simple, gentle home care. Using anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory products will help prevent bacteria buildup and maintain long-term eye health.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is an advanced treatment that uses carefully controlled pulses of light applied to the skin around the eyes. This light energy helps reduce inflammation and improve the function of the oil glands in the eyelids, which are essential for maintaining a healthy tear film.

IPL targets inflammation and abnormal blood vessels that can contribute to dry eye disease. It also helps improve the function of the meibomian glands, which produce the oil layer of your tears. By restoring healthier gland function, IPL can improve tear stability and reduce symptoms like dryness, irritation, redness, and burning.

Yes. IPL has been used safely in dermatology and eye care for many years. When performed by trained professionals using specialized eye protection, IPL is a safe and effective option for treating certain types of dry eye disease.

During treatment, you may feel brief flashes of warm light on the skin around the eyes. Most patients describe the sensation as mild and tolerable. The procedure is typically quick, often taking about 15–20 minutes.

Most patients benefit from a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. Your doctor will recommend a personalized treatment plan based on the severity of your dry eye and how your glands are functioning.

Radiofrequency (RF) therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses gentle heat energy to warm the eyelids and surrounding tissue. This heat helps stimulate the oil glands in the eyelids (meibomian glands), improving oil flow into the tear film and helping relieve symptoms of dry eye.

Many cases of dry eye are caused by blocked or poorly functioning oil glands. RF therapy delivers controlled heat to the eyelids, helping to soften hardened oils and encourage healthier gland function. This improves tear stability and can reduce symptoms like burning, irritation, redness, and fluctuating vision.

Yes. RF treatment for dry eye is designed to be safe and comfortable when performed by trained professionals. Protective measures are used to safeguard the eyes during treatment, and most patients experience only a gentle warming sensation during the procedure.

Most patients describe the treatment as relaxing and similar to a warm facial massage around the eyes. The procedure is typically comfortable and takes about 20–30 minutes, depending on the treatment plan recommended by your doctor.

The number of treatments can vary depending on the severity of your dry eye and your doctor’s recommendation. Many patients benefit from a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart, with periodic maintenance sessions to support long-term gland health.
