IPL + Radiofrequency (RF) Dry Eye Treatment

Advanced Dry Eye Therapy for Birmingham & Surrounding Communities

For patients with ongoing dry eye symptoms, temporary relief is rarely enough. At Michigan Eye Consultants, we offer MD Elite iProX IPL + Radiofrequency (RF), an advanced, non-invasive therapy designed to improve comfort, visual stability, and eyelid health over time.

Treatment recommendations are guided by our Enhanced Dry Eye Consult (EDEC), ensuring that advanced therapies such as IPL and RF are selected thoughtfully and used only when appropriate.

Why Advanced Therapy Is Sometimes Needed

Dry eye often stems from meibomian gland dysfunction and chronic eyelid inflammation — conditions that disrupt the natural tear film. When left unaddressed, these issues can lead to fluctuating vision, irritation, and visual fatigue that interferes with daily activities.

Advanced therapies like IPL and RF are designed to address these contributors at their source, rather than simply managing symptoms.

What Makes IPL + RF Different

MD Elite iProX combines two complementary technologies in a single treatment platform:

• Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to reduce inflammation and improve the eyelid environment
• Radiofrequency (RF) to deliver controlled warmth that supports healthier oil flow from the glands

Together, these treatments provide a more comprehensive and comfortable approach than single-modality therapies.

What Patients Often Notice

Patients frequently report improved comfort during the day, more stable vision, and less dependence on frequent eye drops. Because results build gradually, most patients complete a series of treatments to achieve the most meaningful and lasting improvement.

Treatments are performed comfortably in-office, with minimal disruption to daily schedules.

Who Chooses IPL + RF

This treatment is well-suited for patients who value long-term outcomes, advanced technology, and physician-guided care. It is often selected by individuals whose symptoms persist despite conventional therapies, or who prefer a more refined, proactive approach to eye health.
