Take a look below to learn more.
TearCare is an innovative treatment that directly targets one of the main causes of dry eyes, known as Meibomian Gland dysfunction (MGD). This occurs when the tiny glands along the edges of your eyelids fail to produce enough oil or become blocked, disrupting the tear film that protects and lubricates your eyes.
Using gentle heat and natural blinking, TearCare opens and clears blocked meibomian glands, improving tear quality and providing long-lasting relief from dry eye symptoms.
Here’s how TearCare works:
Comfortable, Flexible Applicators: Soft, adhesive applicators are placed on your eyelids to deliver therapeutic heat to the meibomian glands.
Precise Temperature Control: The system maintains an optimal temperature to safely and effectively loosen blockages.
Natural Blinking: During treatment, you can blink naturally, which helps express the oils from your glands for better tear quality.
Quick Procedure: In just 15-30 minutes, TearCare helps restore gland function without downtime.
