We also offer specialised compounded eye drops that are not available through normal pharmacies. LIPIFLOW This amazing technology is the ultimate for the most common cause of dry eyes, which is meibomian gland dysfunction. As of 2014 there are only five of these instruments in the whole of Australia. The Eye Practice was the first to install this technology a number of years ago and to date has performed the most procedures and therefore has the most experience with the fantastic instrument. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) This procedure was originally approved for skin rosacea. Many dry eye patients also have ocular rosacea. IPL can be very effectively used for stimulating the meibomian glands and calming down the telangiectatic vessels that are associated with dry eyes and rosacea around the eyes.
