Hi everyone,
I've been recommended to do a full (3 to 4 sessions) treatment of E-Eye (IRPL) by my eye doctor who specializes in dry eyes and MGD. This to "speed up" my recovery and getting relief faster. I'm currently doing warm compresses, massage and lid hygien once a day, as well as taking Omega-3.
I do have some questions about E-Eye/IRPL and would really like some answers:
Thank you!

I do have some questions about E-Eye/IRPL and would really like some answers:
- Has anyone here gone through this kind of treatment? How was it?
- How does it differ from a "regular" IPL? For example, does it close abnormal blood vessels that secrete inflammatory mediators like a normal IPL? What's the difference in between them in the way they effect the skin and the nerves around the eyes, as well the Meibomian glands? Pros and cons?
- Is it safe? I think it's considered safer than a "regular" IPL, but then again, does it have the same therapeutic effect (and perhaps even better)?
Thank you!
