Experience Lasting Relief with IPL & RF Therapy
Tired of constantly using eye drops or feeling like there’s something in your eye? You’re not alone—dry eye disease affects millions of people, and many don’t realize there’s a high-tech solution beyond artificial tears.
At See & Be Seen Eyecare, we rely on the latest research and modern technology to diagnose and treat dry eye disease. Thanks to the DARWIN workstation, we are able to offer intense pulsed light therapy (IPL) and radiofrequency (RF) to bring relief to our patients’ eyes.
Contact us to book your dry eye consultation today and find out if IPL therapy or RF is right for you.
Which Treatment Is Right for You?
Dry eye is a complex condition, and not every solution works for everyone. That’s why we begin with a detailed consultation to assess your symptoms and tear function. Based on what we find, we may recommend:
- IPL or RF therapy
- LipiFlow thermal gland expression
- BlephEx lid cleaning
- At-home heat masks or drops
We’ll guide you to the best treatment plan—no guesswork, no one-size-fits-all approach.
What Is IPL Therapy?
Intense pulsed light therapy (IPL) is an in-office treatment used on dry eye and styes. The treatment uses specific wavelengths of light to reduce inflammation around the eyes. This allows the oil-producing meibomian glands to produce more lubrication for the eyes, reducing the effects of dry eye.
How IPL Helps
- Reduces inflammation caused by ocular rosacea and dilated blood vessels
- Unclogs meibomian glands so they can release healthy oils
- Restores tear film stability to relieve dry eye symptoms
What to Expect
- We’ll apply cooling gel and protective eye shields.
- A few gentle pulses of light are delivered to the treatment area.
- We may manually express the glands after treatment.
- Treatments are typically done on Days 1, 15, 45, and 75 for best results.
Some patients experience relief after the first session, but it typically takes a full treatment cycle to fully benefit from the therapy.
What Is RF Therapy?
Radiofrequency (RF) therapy uses heat generated by high-frequency electrical currents to stimulate collagen, relax tissues, and melt hardened oil in the eyelid glands. This is a safe and effective in-office treatment for dry eye.
How RF Helps
- Heats and softens blocked oils in the meibomian glands
- Stimulates natural collagen production
- Improves oil flow to prevent tear evaporation
- Reduces inflammation around the eyes
What to Expect
- We’ll apply a conductive gel and gently massage the area around your eyes with a handheld RF device.
- The treatment feels like a warm massage, comfortable and soothing.
- Each session takes about 30 minutes.
- You may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically resolves within hours.
Most patients see the best results after 3–4 treatments spaced out over a few weeks.
