Lumenis M22™

The Lumenis M22 IPL works by focusing the correct light pulses into the Meibomian glands, the root cause of dry eye problems. This FDA-approved treatment makes use of the oxyhemoglobin in the blood vessels which absorbs the light emitted by the IPL machine.

​

WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING TREATMENT?

This painless, non-invasive procedure requires no anesthesia, sedation, or pre-operative testing. Patients can drive and return to full activities immediately, including unlimited exercise, swimming, and reading. There is no post-operative discomfort and no decrease in vision.

​

​WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?

Patients frequently recognize an improvement in symptoms after a single treatment. A permanent change in Meibomian gland function requires four monthly treatments the first year and a maintenance treatment once a year thereafter.
