What is IPL?
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a proven treatment for dry eyes, specifically meibomian gland dysfunction (one of the most common causes of eye discomfort) and for Demodex (a genus of microscopic mites that can live in eyelash follicles or facial pores). It is also known for its aesthetic uses, such as treating wrinkles.
