Jett Plasma Therapy for Dry Eye
Dry eye symptoms like burning, irritation, or blurred vision are often associated with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). When your eyelid glands are affected or the surrounding tissues lose elasticity, it affects how well your tear film protects and nourishes your eyes.
Jett Plasma therapy is one of the newest innovations in advanced dry eye care. By delivering controlled plasma energy to the eyelids, it stimulates tissue regeneration, supports healthier gland function, and helps restore lasting comfort.
How Jett Plasma Works
Jett Plasma uses a handheld device that creates a stream of low-temperature plasma energy. This energy penetrates deep into the skin and tissues around the eyelids to:
- Stimulate collagen and elastin: Improves eyelid firmness and elasticity for healthier blinking and gland activity.
- Enhance gland function: Encourages better oil flow from the Meibomian glands, stabilizing the tear film.
- Support cellular regeneration: Boosts skin and tissue health, breaking the cycle of age-related atrophy and dysfunction.
- Reduce inflammation: Helps calm irritated tissues and restore balance to the eyelids.
The result is improved eyelid function, better tear quality, and more comfortable eyes.
What to Expect During Treatment
Jett Plasma therapy is a quick, non-invasive procedure that requires no downtime.
- A small handheld device glides over the skin of your eyelids.
- Patients typically describe the sensation as a mild tingling.
- Each session lasts about 45 minutes.
- A series of 4 treatments is often recommended, one week apart, for optimal results.
You can return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.
