Shreveport, LA — In an effort to enhance its array of eye care solutions, Lusk Eye Specialists is proud to announce its Dr. Pamela Theriot is now offering patients the option of OptiLight IPL (intense pulsed light) therapy for dry eye symptoms. OptiLight IPL is a revolutionary treatment designed to offer relief to patients suffering from dry eye syndrome. This cutting-edge technology, which is now available at Lusk Eye Specialists in Shreveport, marks an expansion in their comprehensive eye care and aesthetic services.
OptiLight IPL therapy, an innovative approach to treating dry eye disease caused by meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), is now a part of Lusk Eye Specialists’ extensive treatment offerings. This addition underscores the practice's commitment to integrating the latest advancements in eye health and patient wellness.
“We are thrilled to offer OptiLight IPL therapy alongside our extensive range of dry eye treatments,” said Dr. Pamela Theriot, who leads Lusk Eye Specialists’ dry eye treatment team. “This technology represents a significant leap forward in our ability to provide tailored, effective solutions for our patients suffering from dry eye symptoms. OptiLight IPL therapy complements our commitment to excellence in eye care, offering a non-invasive option that addresses the root cause of dry eye.”
OptiLight by Lumenis is the first and only IPL device that is FDA approved specifically for the management of dry eye disease due to MGD, a common condition that affects millions worldwide. By targeting the inflammation that contributes to the disease, OptiLight IPL therapy helps restore normal gland function and improve tear quality, offering patients long-term relief.
“OptiLight IPL therapy is a game-changer for patients who have struggled with persistent dry eye symptoms,” said Dr. Theriot. “Not only does it provide a significant reduction in discomfort, but it also offers aesthetic benefits, enhancing the skin's appearance around the eyes. Our patients have been delighted with the dual outcomes of improved eye comfort and cosmetic enhancement. It’s a win-win situation.”
