Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) & Radiofrequency (RF) Therapy

Dual-Technology Treatment for Chronic Dry Eye & Ocular Rosacea

If you suffer from red, gritty, burning eyes or persistent dry eye that artificial tears can’t resolve, the underlying cause is often Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) or chronic ocular surface inflammation.

At Isthmus Eye Care, we offer an advanced dual-technology approach combining Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) with Radiofrequency (RF) energy to target the root causes of dry eye disease and deliver long-lasting comfort.

The Power of Dual Technology: IPL + Radiofrequency (RF)

While traditional eye drops only coat the surface, our combined IPL + RF system treats the structural and inflammatory sources of your dryness.

​​​​​​​Combined Benefits:

  • Liquefies Clogged Oils: Gently melts stagnant oil trapped inside your eyelid glands so your tears stay hydrated and don't evaporate too quickly.
  • Calms Ocular Rosacea: Seals off abnormal telangiectatic blood vessels that leak inflammatory signals into your eyelids.
  • Reduces Eye Redness & Fatigue: Leaves eyes feeling refreshed, clear, and less irritated throughout the day.
  • Aesthetic Bonus: RF thermal energy stimulates collagen production around the eyes, leaving skin smoother and firmer.


Conditions Treated with IPL + RF
IPL/RF therapy is an ideal choice for patients struggling with:

  • Evaporative Dry Eye Disease & Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD)
  • Ocular Rosacea and facial telangiectasia (visible red blood vessels)
  • Chronic Blepharitis and lid margin inflammation
  • Demodex Mite Infestation or excessive eyelid bacteria
  • Persistent eye fatigue, burning, or gritty sensations
