Frequently Asked Questions

Dry eye treatment from TearStim

TearStim can provide a long-lasting solution for dry eye syndrome, ensuring the meibomian glands function properly. This can help to remedy the cause of dry eyes and relieve any eye pain or uncomfortable vision. Previous treatment for dry eyes has only temporarily alleviated the symptoms, whereas TearStim can help the root of the problem.

TearStim is a device based on intense regulated pulsed light technology (IRPL). The device emits painless light pulses below the eye, stimulating the nerve to release neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters stimulate the secretion of the meibomian glands, contributing to restoring regular activity. The treatment provided by TearStim can improve the quality of the gland secretion, along with stabilising the lipid layer of the tear film.

How TearStim works?

The treatment only takes a few minutes, giving you the chance to go the extra mile to help maintain your patients’ eye health. With the patient sitting comfortably in a chair, the optician simply covers the patients’ eyes with protector shells and applies a special gel.

A series of 8-10 light pulses are then aimed at the region below the eyes, before being repeated in the same way on the other eye.

The treatment needs only 3 sessions to make a difference
The effects of the dry eye treatment can last from 6 months up to 3 years. It’s recommended that you have an annual booster session in the form of a single treatment.
Dry, red or watery eyes can soon be a thing of the past, even from the first application of the TearStim treatment. Look after your patients’ vision with this revolutionary solution today.
