Naples Dry Eye Treatments
Among our treatments for dry eye syndrome, the most typical treatments start with medicated eye drops, anti-inflammatory drops, or a heated compress. Occasionally, tiny devices called punctal plugs are inserted into the eye’s tear duct to prevent moisture from draining out of the eye. These plugs increase the moisture level for long-term relief.
Let Dr. Ray C. Whetstone and the talented, experienced staff help get you started on the path to real long-term relief from dry eye.
Reveal Eterna Radio-frequency Treatment: Transformative Relief for Dry Eyes
Reveal Eterna introduces a groundbreaking solution for managing dry eyes through radiofrequency (RF) treatment. This innovative approach employs controlled heat generated by RF energy to stimulate the meibomian glands responsible for producing the oily layer of tears. By targeting these glands, RF therapy enhances tear quality and quantity, effectively alleviating dry eye symptoms.
The procedure involves a specialized device delivering RF energy to the eyelids, promoting blood circulation and glandular activity. As an additional benefit, RF treatment induces changes in your body’s natural collagen, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This holistic approach addresses dry eye concerns and contributes to overall eye health and aesthetics.
Epi-C Low-Level Light Therapy (LLT): Rapid Relief for Chronic Dry Eye
Epi-C offers a swift and effective solution for chronic dry eye through low-level light therapy (LLT). This treatment utilizes intense pulsed light therapy and low-level light therapy to reduce inflammation and bacteria buildup, providing rapid relief from symptoms like excessive tearing, grittiness, and dryness.
Epi-C sessions are non-invasive, pain-free, and require no eye protection. Dr. Ray C. Whetstone often combines IPL and LLLT based on a personalized dry eye relief plan, yielding overwhelmingly effective results.
