If you live in the North Texas area and find yourself constantly battling dry, irritated eyes, you’re not alone. Our local climate and screen-heavy lifestyles can contribute to symptoms that affect your comfort and quality of life. At Eldorado Vision & Optical, we offer advanced solutions like LipiFlow® to help our neighbors find lasting relief.
LipiFlow is an advanced, FDA-approved treatment that combines gentle thermal heat and pulsating massage to unblock the meibomian glands in the eyelids. By restoring natural oil flow, it helps improve tear stability, reduce symptoms, and support long-term eye comfort.
You may be a strong candidate for LipiFlow if you:
Determining if LipiFlow is the right choice starts with a thorough dry eye evaluation. At Eldorado Vision & Optical, we perform detailed assessments using diagnostic tools that measure tear film stability, evaluate gland function, and identify the root cause of your symptoms. If MGD is the primary factor, LipiFlow may be the ideal solution.
LipiFlow is quick and comfortable, typically taking about 12 minutes per eye. The device is placed gently over the eyelids while applying gentle pressure to massage the glands.
Many patients experience noticeable improvement in their dry eye symptoms within a few weeks, with results continuing to improve over several months. Because LipiFlow targets the cause of MGD, it offers longer-lasting relief compared to temporary solutions like eye drops.
If dry eyes are interfering with your life, it’s time to take the next step. At Eldorado Vision & Optical, we’re here to help you get to the root of the problem and find a treatment that works, whether that means LipiFlow or another personalized option.
