Chronic dry eye treatment
Anybody had IPL treatment for chronic dry eyes
Hi
, thank you for reaching out! Many in the community have done intense pulsed light therapy (IPL) for treating chronic dry eye. Everyone's experience is a little different as all bodies are unique. A few of our patient leaders have articles where they share about their experiences with IPL that I thought might be of interest to you:

Thank you for the quick response it all doesn’t sound that promising. Just dying to do my research on IPL as it’s expensive so need to know if it’s worth it. Have an appointment to have my eyes assessed in September
, it is definitely an expensive treatment! You are very wise to spend time before your eye assessment doing some research to decide if you feel the investment will be worth it for you. Let us know how your September appointment goes and what you decide! Wishing you a gentle day. ~Allyson (ChronicDryEye.net team)
