The iLux device is a revolutionary treatment for dry eye, providing targeted therapy to alleviate discomfort and improve eye health. iLux delivers localized heat and compression to the meibomian glands, which produce the oils necessary for a healthy tear film.

This advanced technology allows for precise treatment, ensuring maximum relief for dry eye sufferers.

What Is iLux Treatment Used For?

iLux is specifically designed to treat Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), one of the leading causes of dry eye. MGD occurs when the meibomian glands become blocked or dysfunctional, resulting in insufficient oil in the tear film and dry, irritated eyes. By addressing this root cause, iLux effectively reduces symptoms such as:

  • Dryness
  • Irritation
  • Redness
  • Grittiness
  • Blurry vision

During an iLux treatment,

Dr. Veronica Kacherova will:

  • Evaluate Your Eyes: A thorough examination to determine the severity of your dry eye and MGD.
  • Apply the iLux Device: The handheld iLux device is gently placed on your eyelids, targeting the meibomian glands.
  • Heat and Compress: The device emits therapeutic heat to melt blockages in the glands, followed by gentle compression to express the oils and restore gland functionality.
  • Monitor and Adjust: Dr. Kacherova will monitor the treatment in real-time, adjusting as necessary to ensure optimal results.

How Treatments Work

Each iLux treatment session is quick and comfortable, typically lasting 8-12 minutes per eye. The process involves:

  • Preparation: Your eyes are prepared and numbing drops may be used for added comfort.
  • Treatment: The iLux device is applied, delivering controlled heat and compression.
  • Completion: After the treatment, you may experience immediate relief, though full benefits are often seen after several treatments.

iLux treatments are non-invasive and require no downtime, allowing you to resume your normal activities immediately.
