OptiPLUS is an FDA-cleared radiofrequency technology that can help treat meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)—a common cause of dry eye. 

OptiPLUS emits dual frequencies that can gently warm up layers of skin around the eyes to improve blood circulation, trigger collagen production, and melt stubborn oils blocking your meibomian glands. 

Enhancing circulation and collagen can help control inflammation, and improving oil flow can help keep your eyes moist and comfortable.

Ziena frames are specifically designed to protect the eyes from environmental factors that can cause dry eyes, such as wind, air conditioning, and pollution. The frames feature a unique moisture chamber that creates a barrier between the eye and the outside environment, reducing the evaporation of natural tears and providing a more comfortable and lubricated ocular surface.
Ziena frames can help manage dry eye symptoms, and they are also stylish and comfortable, making them an excellent choice for everyday wear.

Meibomian gland expression can be an effective treatment for individuals who suffer from dry eye disease. When these glands become blocked, the natural oils that keep the tear film stable are not produced properly, resulting in dry, irritated eyes.

With meibomian gland expression, a specially designed tool is used to apply pressure to the glands, helping to release any blockages and stimulate the production of healthy oils.

OCuSOFT thermal touch is a treatment option designed to alleviate dry eye symptoms. This technology applies heat and gentle pressure to the eyelids, releasing lipids from the meibomian glands.

Unlike traditional warm compresses, OCuSOFT thermal touch helps improve the flow and quality of natural tears, resulting in more comfortable, lubricated eyes.

At See & Co, we also offer Optase products to manage chronic and progressive dry eye.

• • Cleansing products help remove debris, bacteria, and oil from the skin around the eye and eyelashes.

• • Hydrating products like preservative-free eye drops, sprays, and ointments can help reduce inflammation in the eyes.
