What to Expect

Using new advanced diagnostic equipment, a Comprehensive Dry Eye Evaluation is performed by the doctor at the Dry Eye Spa of West Michigan to determine the causes of the disease. Once a diagnosis is determined, a personalized Dry Eye Report complete with eye photos, is used to educate the patient to their specific case. A Dry Eye Treatment Plan is then prescribed by the doctor to manage the causes of the disease to improve the patient’s eye health, comfort, and vision.

Developing A Treatment Plan

The key in each case is to treat the causes of dry eye disease, not the symptoms. Treatment plans involve using medical-grade LED light therapy, thermal eyelid warming therapy, gentle eyelid oil gland expressions, Rx anti-inflammatory eye drops, nutriceuticals, eye hygiene products and more. The goal is to help these “sore eye” patients enjoy having healthier, better feeling, and more attractive looking eyes.

Dry Eye Spa Treatment Services

The majority of Dry Eye Disease cases must include an initial eyelash/eyelid cleansing called BlephEx, then medical-grade LED Light Therapy, MiBo Thermal Therapy, and TearCare Thermal Therapy eyelid treatments to help soften and melt this waxy, sticky meibomian gland “sludge”. After a treatment is performed, the glandular contents are then gently expressed out of these glands by the doctor to allow a more healthy liquid oil to again be secreted. These treatments and gland expression procedures help to restore tear film homeostasis in preventing tear film evaporation to thus help the eyes feel, look and see better. In addition to these in-office treatments, patients are prescribed at-home dry eye therapies and medications.

Dry Eye Treatment Plans are prescribed by the doctor to address the degree of a patients Dry Eye Disease condition. Dry Eye Treatment Plans require between four – seven 30 minute visits.
