Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) involves applying a series of light pulses to the area around the eyelids. It’s totally non-invasive and there’s no pain. Patients usually notice an improvement in only a few hours after treatment. IPL is a proven effective treatment available at our dry eye centre.
Other Treatments
We offer a number of treatment options in our dry eye clinic. Following an in-depth assessment.you’ll informed about treatment options like Puntal Plugs (to stop tears draining out of the eye), Blephex (for a deep clean of the eyelids), dietary supplements, at-home treatments and of course a plethora of eye drops.

Suffering from Dry Eyes?
Act Now!
Dry eye causes slow, progressive changes to surface of the eye and permanent damage to glands in the eyelids. Act now and book a dry eye consultation.
Are warm compresses and constant use of artificial tears not relieving your dry eyes? The problem with these treatments are they are difficult to maintain and they’re not effective in treating dry eye. Improved treatments such for Blepharitis and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction are effective in improving tear quality and reducing symptoms of dry eyes. There is no cure for dry eyes but treatment with IPL, Blephex and Punctal plugs can reduce the long-term damage caused by dry eyes.
