IPL vs. LLLT for Dry Eye: Which Treatment Is Right for You?

Dry eye disease affects millions of people and is one of the most common conditions we see in eye care offices today. For many patients, dry eye is caused by inflammation or poor oil gland function, which means over-the-counter drops alone are often not enough. Modern treatment options like IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and LLLT (Low-Level Light Therapy) are designed to target the root causes of dry eye. At Cedar Rapids Eye Care, we use these advanced therapies to create personalized treatment plans for long-term comfort.
