OptiLIGHT \u2013 a modern method for treating dry eye syndrome<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CAIRS is a revolution in keratoconus treatment, based on the logic of nature. Instead of artificial, plastic implants, we use precisely shaped segments made from pure, natural collagen. These biological implants, free of donor cells, integrate with your cornea, becoming a part of it. They act as an internal scaffold \u2013 strengthening the weakened structure, flattening the cone, and restoring a more natural, stable shape to the cornea. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Comfort and Safety of the OptiLIGHT Procedure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The OptiLIGHT device has been designed with the comfort of both patients and operators in mind. Ergonomic handpieces and adjustable settings allow the device to be adapted to the individual curvature and contour of the face. OptiLIGHT is equipped with safety systems that protect the patient’s eyes from possible side effects. Special protective eyewear used during the procedure and cooling gel applied to the skin minimize discomfort and protect tissue. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

Preparation for the procedure<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The procedure begins with patient preparation, where the patient sits in the treatment chair and puts on protective eyewear. The eyelids are then thoroughly cleaned to remove impurities such as dirt, dandruff, or makeup residue. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>
\n

Application of protective gel<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The next step is to apply a special cooling gel to the skin. This serves a protective function and increases patient comfort during the procedure. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Procedure course<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During the procedure, a special IPL handpiece emits short, intense flashes of light. The light penetrates the tissues, reduces inflammation, dissolves compacted secretions from the Meibomian glands, and reduces the number of bacteria and mites on the eyelid margins. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/i><\/div>
\n

Duration and number of treatments<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A single session lasts approximately 15 minutes. For optimal results, a series of 3\u20134 treatments is usually performed at intervals of 2\u20133 weeks. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Possible side effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
