Discover Lasting Relief for Dry Eyes

Dry, itchy, and burning eyes can be a constant distraction. We understand. That's why our Helena-based practice focuses on a different approach: we don't just treat the symptoms. Our doctors are experts at finding the root cause of your dry eye issues and developing a personalized treatment plan to give you the relief you deserve.

Our Comprehensive Approach

  • Detailed Diagnosis:

    • Tear film analysis to evaluate tear quantity and quality.

    • Meibomian gland evaluation to assess oil production in the eyelids.

    • Screening for underlying causes like allergies, autoimmune disorders, or medication side effects.

  • Customized Treatments:

    • At-home therapies including artificial tears, warm compresses, and lid hygiene.

    • Prescription eye drops (e.g., Restasis, Xiidra) to reduce inflammation.

    • Office treatments using Inmode Envision to provide a non-surgical system designed to treat the root causes of chronic dry eye, primarily Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) and inflammation, rather than just providing temporary relief like eye drops.

  • Lifestyle Guidance: Tips to manage triggers like screen time, Helena’s dry climate, or dehydration.

What is Inmode Envision?

ENVISION offers a safe and effective solution for dry eye syndrome, using radiofrequency and IPL to improve eye health and appearance. This treatment works by gently heating the tissue around your eyes, which stimulates oil glands to produce higher-quality oil and reduces inflammation. As a bonus, it also increases collagen and elastin, helping to tighten the skin around your eyes and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. With ENVISION, you can say goodbye to the daily hassle of managing dry eyes and hello to healthier eyes that look and feel their best. Our approach to treating dry eye syndrome involves a series of sessions over a few months, with each appointment lasting about an hour. We use two advanced technologies:

Forma-I: This treatment uses radiofrequency technology. It feels like a warm, relaxing massage around your eyes and works to improve blood circulation in the area.

Lumecca-I: This treatment uses light to gently heat tissues and reduce inflammation. You'll notice a bright flash of light and a sensation like a light snap from an elastic band on your skin during the process.
