Treatment for Dry Eye with Eterna
Dry eye can be a persistent and uncomfortable condition, affecting millions of people worldwide. While traditional treatments offer temporary relief, a groundbreaking solution has emerged in the form of Eterna™ — a noninvasive, FDA-cleared radiofrequency device designed to alleviate dry eye symptoms.
The majority of dry eye cases stem from Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), where blocked or clogged glands disrupt the flow of oil into the tear film, leading to symptoms of dryness and irritation. Eterna™ addresses this underlying cause by utilizing gentle radiofrequency energy emission to heat the skin adjacent to the eyes. Through targeted heating, Eterna™ melts the thick oil secretions obstructing the Meibomian glands, facilitating improved oil flow into the tears. Additionally, the treatment helps reduce inflammation around the eyes, further alleviating dry eye symptoms.

That’s not all! The RF technology also stimulates collagen production, tightening the skin and improving overall appearance around the eyes. The heat generated by the electrical currents prompt a healing response that results in an increase of collagen within the superficial and deeper layers of the skin. New collagen fibers that are firm and dense are created, helping to tighten the skin and improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Eterna™ treatments are non-invasive and performed in-office, with each session lasting approximately 30 minutes. For optimal results, patients typically undergo 3 to 4 treatments spaced four weeks apart. Depending on individual factors such as age and the severity of dry eye, additional treatments may be necessary to achieve desired outcomes.
By harnessing the power of radiofrequency technology, Eterna™ addresses the root cause of dry eye syndrome while providing additional benefits for skin health and rejuvenation. If you're tired of battling dry eye and longing for lasting relief, contact us today to see if Eterna™ is right for you.
