Lipiflow Thermal Pulsation is an FDA-approved treatment for patients who suffer from Meibomian Gland Dysfucntion (MGD). Our meibomian glands are located in our eyelids and are responsible for the secretion of oil to the tear film. When the meibomian glands dysfunction, the glands become clogged, causing insufficient oil production for the tear film. The quality and quantity of oil decrease when there is dysfunction in the glands.

​​​​​​​Meibomian gland dysfunction is the most common root cause of dry eyes. LipiFlow treatment deals directly with that root cause of dry eye. It provides heat to the eyelids while simultaneously applying a gentle massage. This combination effectively removes the blockages in the meibomian glands and allows them to secrete the clogged oil. One session can offer significant relief to patients suffering from dry eyes and MGD.
