Is LipiFlow® right for you?

Most people (over 80%) who suffer from chronic dry eye have meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). This is a common eye condition and form of evaporative dry eye in which patients have obstructed meibomian glands. When working properly, these glands produce an oil (meibum) that mixes with tears. Tears without this oil are prone to evaporating quickly, thus causing the eyes to dry out.

For decades, eye doctors had no practical solution for unblocking clogged meibomian glands. Thankfully, that has all changed with LipiFlow. Our doctors can use an Ocular Surface Interferometer to evaluate your lipids and diagnose MGD. To find out if you have MGD and whether LipiFlow can relieve your dry eyes, please schedule a consultation.
