IRPL technology is specially certified to treat all forms of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. Intense Regulated Pulsed Light is emitted, causing a neurological response by liberating neurotransmitters via the parasympathetic pathway connected to the Meibomian glands. This interaction results in the glands returning to normal function with increased meibum secretion quantity and quality. 

Based on the responses of 100,000+ patients treated using our device worldwide: 

     · 96% Recommend the treatment to family/friends

     · 83% Confirm improvement of symptoms (I can personally confirm this is true)

     · 55% Stop using artificial tears after treatments

     · Up to 3 years symptom relief

 What Is the Cornea?

The cornea is the clear, dome-shaped front surface of your eye that helps focus light so you can see clearly.
When the cornea becomes injured, inflamed, or diseased, your vision can become blurred, painful, or sensitive to light.

 What Is an Amniotic Membrane?

An amniotic membrane is a thin, clear layer that comes from the innermost part of the placenta.

• It is donated safely from screened mothers after Caesarean deliveries.
• The tissue is processed and sterilized to ensure it’s free of any infection.
• It contains natural healing and anti-inflammatory properties that help promote the repair of damaged eye tissues.

How Does It Help the Eye?

Amniotic membranes help the cornea heal in several ways:

• Reduces inflammation and redness
• Speeds up healing of corneal wounds
• Decreases scarring to improve clarity
• Provides pain relief by protecting exposed nerve endings
• Acts as a biological bandage while your eye recovers

When Is It Used?

Your eye doctor may recommend amniotic membrane therapy for conditions such as:

• Persistent corneal ulcers or erosions
• Chemical or thermal burns to the eye
• Dry eye disease (severe forms)
• Infectious keratitis
• Post-surgical healing after procedures like pterygium removal or corneal transplantation
