Introducing OptiLIGHT – a bright solution for dry eyes. OptiLIGHT elevates dry eye management with Lumenis’ patented Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT™) and user-centered design. Get the safe, precise, elegant procedure you want and the comfortable, effective therapy your patients need to manage dry eye disease with OptiLIGHT.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
OptiLight uses precise pulses of light to reduce the inflammation that is typically associated with dry eye disease, improve tear break-up time, and increase meibomian gland functionality.
This application can significantly relieve dry eye indicators and has a multi-factorial effect, including:
- Increasing tear break-up time
- Reducing the amount of Demodex mites and bacteria living around your eyes
- Eliminating blood vessels that contribute to inflammation
- Improving meibomian gland functionality
Reduce Inflammatory Mediators
Decrease the level of pro-inflammatory mediators to inhibit inflammation.
Improve Tear Breakup Time
Significantly boost tear break up time and decrease osmolarity.
Alleviate Abnormal Blood Vessels
Destroy the abnormal blood vessels that perpetuate inflammation.
Restore Meibomian Glands
Improve meibomian gland morphology and functionality.
Decrease Demodex
Decrease the population of Demodex mites, which stimulate infection and boost the bacterial load on eyelids.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR OPTILIGHT TREATMENT
OptiLight typically involves a series of 4 treatments set 2–4 weeks apart. Each session takes about 10–15 minutes. Once the session is over, you can immediately get back to your day. No waiting time.
During your appointment, an eye care professional will apply coupling gel to the treatment area. Then, they’ll cover your eyes with shields.
Next, light pulses are focused on the skin below your eyes. You might feel warmth or heat on your skin, but otherwise, most patients experience minimal sensation.
Finally, your eye doctor will remove the eye shields and remove the coupling gel. OptiLight is also commonly followed up with meibomian gland expression or LipiFlow treatments.
Most patients notice improvements after 2–3 treatments.
WILL THE OPTILIGHT WORK FOR ME?
While OptiLight by Lumenis is an effective dry eye management solution, we want to make sure it’s right for you. We do not recommend this treatment if you:
- Suffer from aqueous deficiency dry eye (rather than evaporative dry eye or meibomian gland dysfunction)
- Have a history of keloid scarring
- Have severe scarring around your eyes
Ultimately, your doctor is the only person who can determine whether this option is right for you. During your next appointment, ask us if you are a good candidate for OptiLight by Lumenis.
