Good Day Everyone

I've recently been posting about my practices experience with Evaporative Dry Eye/Meibomain gland dysfunction and use of the LipiFlow system, and I have received multiple questions.

I had Lipiflow last November. Immediately after the painless procedure, the ophthalmologist proceeded to manually express each and every meibomian gland and it was extremely painful.

www.herzig-eye.com - It is the Herzig Eye Institute in Toronto. They are going to start seeing US patients on Saturdays since this is more convenient with travelling, etc. I'd be happy to provide...
