What Is IProX? How Does It Work?
iProX is a next-generation device and the highest-performing platform on the market. The device treats vascular conditions and inflammation that can be the underlying cause of dry eye syndrome. This system can treat dry eyes with custom IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy to reduce inflammation caused by abnormal blood vessels, mites, and inflammatory conditions.

What Are The Benefits Of Treatment With IProX?
Dry eyes? We bring next-generation technology to the diagnosis and treatment of dry eyes – one of the most common, and frequently under-diagnosed eye conditions. Dry eye occurs due to various contributing factors. The tear-producing glands may not be performing as nature intended, and if left untreated, can lead to damaging the eye surface. We will first evaluate your tear film with a specialized diagnostic system that will determine the extent of your condition, and whether it is mild, moderate, or severe.
