Is it causes eye vision problem.Is once IPL treatment give lifelong relief or we get habits of getting IPL treatment after some year.There is little bit redness in my eye and when I use my mobile or any thing, I get problem in difference the thing(little bit). Should I visit my doctor.
Thank you
Going by your reports,
You have more dry eyes in right eye than left eye
There will not be any vision problem post ipl treatment
It is given in 3-4 sessions 1 month apart to enhance your gland function.
Post treatment you may have mild reddness over your eyelid , tingling sensation , your skin color may get lighter tone.
See both ipl treatment and eye drops are not permanent cure.
Next Steps
continue hypolube 6 times a day
if symptoms persist then go for ipl treatment
