What Is LipiFlow®?

LipiFlow® Thermal Pulsation is an FDA-approved treatment for patients who suffer from Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).

Healthy Meibomian glands that line your upper and lower eyelids secrete oil with every blink. Your Meibomian glands produce the oily part of the tear film needed to protect the surface of your eye by preventing the evaporation of the watery part of your tears. When this function is not working well, your eyes may feel dry. Keeping the function and structure of your Meibomian glands healthy before you become symptomatic is key, as MGD progresses over time.

How Can LipiFlow® Help?

For patients with MGD, TearScience® LipiFlow® significantly improves gland secretions and ocular surface symptoms including dry eye and less frequent or blurry vision.

  • The treatment is non-invasive procedure performed in the comfort of your doctor’s office, only takes 12 minutes and can have long-lasting results
  • After initial anesthetic drops, no drugs required for TearScience® LipiFlow® treatment
  • Long-lasting results—many can see the continued benefit up to 12 months
  • 400,000 treatments worldwide—and growing
