DRY EYE TREATMENT OPTIONS
A complete treatment pathway for meaningful relief
Having access to advanced diagnostic technology is what makes truly personalised dry eye care possible. Understanding the specific type of dry eye each patient has is fundamental – it can completely change the treatment approach and the outcome. Treating dry eye without the right diagnostic tools is like trying to guess someone's glasses prescription rather than measuring it accurately. We don't guess.
OCULUS Keratograph K5
The OCULUS Keratograph K5 is one of the most comprehensive dry eye imaging systems available today.
-
It measures tear meniscus height, non-invasive tear break-up time, meibomian gland imaging, and lipid layer grading – all without touching your eye.
-
The K5 is also unique in its ability to photograph and grade the meibomian glands directly – revealing structural damage that would otherwise go undetected. This level of insight is what separates a truly personalised treatment plan from a generic one.
Patients often tell us that seeing their own tear film and gland structure on screen for the first time makes everything click – suddenly the condition makes sense, and so does the path to treating it.
Lumenis Optilight IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
Not all IPL devices are equal. What makes this device stand out and often be regarded as the gold standard for dry eye therapy?
-
The Lumenis Optilight is the only IPL device FDA-cleared specifically for dry eye disease – a meaningful clinical distinction.
-
It is specifically designed to address both the "face" and the "eye" components of dry eye.
-
It has highly tailored protocols for specific skin types and skin conditions (like rosacea or rosacea erythema), which allows us to optimise the treatment to achieve optimal results.
One of the most common causes of dry eye, Meibomian Gland Dysfunction, is a disease of the eyes and the face. The meibomian glands are influenced by inflammation across the entire periocular region – which is why treating both the eyelids and the surrounding facial skin is crucial for optimal results.
The aim is restored meibomian gland function and improved tear quality – addressing the underlying cause, not just the symptoms.
What We Offer
Personalised comprehensive dry eye assessment and treatment options, including IPL Lumenis Optilight Therapy
Advanced Diagnostics
Dry Eye is a complex multi-factorial disease with a wide range of symptoms. That is why it is crucial to conduct a thorough analysis of the ocular surface and determine exactly what is the underlying cause of the issues you are having.

Blepharitis Management
Blepharitis, otherwise known as inflammation of the eyelids, is a very common issue linked to Dry Eye Disease. Managing blepharitis is an important step in ensuring more long-lasting relief from your discomfort and symptoms.
IPL Dry Eye Therapy
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is the cutting-edge treatment option for the Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), Blepharitis and Ocular Rosacea which are associated with Dry Eye Disease. It is currently one of the most effective forms of treatment available.
Blephasteam Therapy
A deep-heat "Eye Spa" treatment to get concentrated moist heat to the Meibomian Glands (oil glands). This is a very effective and relaxing form of treatment to facilitate better oil expression in those stubborn blepharitis and MGD cases.
IPL Skin Rosacea Treatment
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy is clinically proven to significantly reduce the inflammatory markers in skin Rosacea. This improves the overall appearance of the skin and tones down the redness, leading to a much more uniform appearance.
