iLux Thermal Expression
iLux Thermal Heating and Expression for Dry Eye Disease
The iLux device uses a LED light to raise the eyelid temperature and melt the blockages.
The proprietary light-based heat source gently warms the inner and outer lid to a safe therapeutic temperature. Sensors in the disposable iLux Smart Tip monitor inner eyelid temperature continuously during treatment. One-button control of heating and compression allows the location and duration of treatment
The Procedure
During the procedure, a strategic level of light pulses is administered to penetrate the skin under the eye and targets the root cause of the inflammation. As the IPL treatment treats your overall skin appearance, your eyelid inflammation is treated and improved as well. IPL procedures are effective, gentle and safe.
For optimal results, 3-5 sessions are typically recommended, with 3-4 weeks in between. Maintenance treatments, usually once every 6-12 months, are also recommended for optimal long-term results.
