About the Treatment
Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) is a gentle, soothing LED light treatment that helps reduce inflammation, relieve dryness and irritation, and support healthy cellular activity within the eyelids and surrounding skin. This therapeutic light energy helps calm inflammatory factors associated with dry eye while promoting improved tissue function and comfort.
LLLT also stimulates collagen activity in the peri-ocular area, providing subtle skin rejuvenation benefits alongside ocular relief.
What to Expect
During treatment, a specialized LED light device is positioned comfortably over the closed eyes. Patients simply relax while therapeutic light energy is delivered to the eyelids and surrounding tissue. The experience is painless and often described as warm and calming.
Sessions typically last about 15–20 minutes. LLLT is commonly performed as a series or combined with other dry eye therapies for enhanced results.
How to Prepare
- No special preparation is typically required.
- Arrive with clean skin free of eye makeup or heavy skincare products.
- Contact lenses should be removed prior to treatment.
- Inform your provider of any recent eye procedures or sensitivities.
