Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT)
LLLT use specific wavelengths of red (around 633 nm) and near infrared light (around 830nm) to stimulate skin metabolism and reduce inflammation. It is a non- invasive treatment used to improve the function of the meibomian glands. Dysfunction of these glands is a leading cause of evaporative dry eye.
A course of 3 sessions spaced 1-2 weeks apart is typical for best results and is followed by Meibomian Gland expression : £400.00.
A single treatment may also be advised as a supplement to IPL treatment.
