Radio Frequency

OptiPlus is a radiofrequency (RF) device designed to treat dry eye disease, particularly focusing on improving the function of the meibomian glands, which are crucial for maintaining healthy tear production. Here’s a detailed overview of its features and benefits:

How OptiPlus Works

  • Radiofrequency Technology: OptiPlus uses RF energy to gently heat the tissue around the eyes. This targeted heating helps to liquefy and express the oils in the meibomian glands, promoting better meibomian gland function.
  • Non-invasive Treatment: The procedure is non-invasive and painless, making it a comfortable option for patients seeking relief from dry eye symptoms.

Benefits

  • Improves Tear Quality: By enhancing the function of the meibomian glands, OptiPlus helps increase the quality of tears produced, reducing dryness and discomfort.
  • Reduces Inflammation: The heat generated during the treatment can also help reduce inflammation in the eyelid and surrounding areas, further alleviating dry eye symptoms.
  • Quick and Convenient: Treatments are typically quick, often taking around 15 to 20 minutes, allowing for easy integration into a patient’s routine.

Who Can Benefit

This treatment is ideal for individuals seeking a non-surgical solution to manage their dry eye symptoms, particularly those who have not found relief through traditional therapies such as artificial tears or prescription medications. OptiPlus represents an innovative approach to managing dry eye disease by targeting the underlying causes of the condition, offering patients a promising option for relief and improved eye health.

By combining this with effective therapies like OptiLight, patients may experience enhanced results, addressing both the symptoms and the root causes of their discomfort. If you're dealing with dry eye symptoms, it’s important to consult your eye care professional to determine if OptiPlus is suitable for your needs. This comprehensive approach can lead to better overall eye health and comfort
