Official title
Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Intense Pulse Light Treatment With Meibomian Gland Expression of Upper Eyelids for Dry Eye Disease
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Upper eyelid treatment has not been used with previously described methods of treatment of dry eye disease using intense pulsed light therapy because the upper lids disease was typically not as advanced as lower lid and because direct treatment of the upper lid was not felt to be necessary as each light pulse extended over the entire periorbita even when concentrated on the lower lid.
