No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Dry eye disease (DED) is an extremely common disease whose meibomian gland dysfunction is the main etiology.

Polychromatic intense pulsed light (IPL) is a promising new therapeutic alternative but few clinical data have been published.

A new IPL device has recently been marketed: LACRYSTIM (QUANTEL, France). The investigators have been using it in our clinical practice since June 2019.

The investigators present a retrospective study on our first clinical results.
