Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT) is a non-invasive, drug-free, holistic dry eye treatment.
This is a relaxing in office procedure that utilizes light emitting diodes (LEDs) of specific wavelengths of light that help to improve both types of dry eye including aqueous deficient (AD) and meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD).
Benefits of LLLT
Can kill bacteria and demodex mites that lead to inflammation on the eyelids and cause blepharitis, styes and meibomian gland dysfunction
Provides cellular energy to help regenerate damaged tissue and improve function of the meibomian glands.
Reduces inflammation by modulating the activity of immune cells and helping to reduce the production of inflammatory molecules. This helps reduce the pain and irritation symptoms you experience with dry eye.
Helps to improve tear production by reducing inflammation and improving the cellular function of the lacrimal gland to stimulate tear production.
Added advantage of this treatment is that it provides skin rejuvenation by stimulating collagen and elastin production that helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles. By targeting bacteria and reducing inflammation it also helps with acne and complexion.
