Dry Eye Treatment & Relief
Say Goodbye to Dry, Irritated Eyes
Do your eyes often feel dry, itchy, or irritated? You may be suffering from dry eye syndrome, a common condition that affects millions of people. At Crystal Vision & Better Hearing, we offer OptiLIGHT, the first and only light-based therapy approved for managing dry eye disease caused by Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), helping you find long-lasting relief and restore your eye comfort.
Symptoms of Dry Eye Syndrome
Dry eye can cause a range of symptoms, including:
• Redness and irritation
• Burning or stinging sensations
• Blurry vision
• Sensitivity to light
• Excessive tearing
• Grittiness or the feeling of something in your eye
What Causes Dry Eye?
Dry eye occurs when your eyes don’t produce enough tears or when your tears evaporate too quickly. Common causes include:
Aging
Screen time and digital device use
Contact lens wear
Environmental factors (wind, smoke, dry climates)
Certain medications
Underlying health conditions
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
Is OptiLIGHT Right for You?
If you are experiencing symptoms of dry eye disease, such as dryness, redness, itching, or burning sensations, OptiLIGHT may be an effective treatment option. Consult with our eye care professionals to determine if this therapy is right for you.
