Advanced Dry Eye Solutions at Crystal Vision & Better Hearing

We offer state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment options, with OptiLIGHT as our leading solution for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), which is responsible for approximately 86% of dry eye cases.

 

What is OptiLIGHT?

OptiLIGHT utilizes precise, intense broad-spectrum light to target and reduce inflammation— a key factor in MGD-related dry eye disease. Using Lumenis’ patented Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT™), OptiLIGHT delivers uniform and controlled treatment to the delicate area below the eyes.

How Does OptiLIGHT Work?

This non-invasive treatment addresses multiple contributors to dry eye disease by:
Reducing abnormal blood vessels
Targeting Demodex mites
Decreasing pro-inflammatory agents
Restoring the function of the meibomian glands to maintain a healthy tear film and
reduce tear evaporation

What to Expect During Treatment

The OptiLIGHT treatment protocol typically consists of four sessions spaced 2 to 4 weeks apart. Each session involves:

Application of light to the skin below the eyes
Use of eye shields and a thin layer of coupling gel
Minimal discomfort during the procedure
No downtime, allowing you to resume daily activities immediately
Patients often report improvement after the
second or third session, with optimal results achieved after completing all four sessions.

Benefits of OptiLIGHT

Non-invasive and gentle treatment
Targets multiple underlying causes of dry eye disease
Reduces dependency on eye drops
Clinically validated to improve tear breakup time and restore meibomian gland function
