Are you experiencing unpredictable and painful eye “crises”?

Intense, persistent redness (bloodshot eyes) that never goes away completely.
Extreme sensitivity to light (photophobia), making driving or working on a screen difficult.
Intense burning sensation that worsens with certain triggers (wind, sun, alcohol, spicy foods).
Small blood vessels visible on the white of the eye or the edge of the eyelids.
Do you also have redness on your face or very sensitive skin (cutaneous rosacea)?

These symptoms indicate chronic inflammation. Standard eye drops do not address this inflammation. Uncontrolled ocular rosacea can damage the surface of your eyes (cornea) and affect your vision in the long term. It's time to break the inflammation cycle.

Beyond Redness: Understanding and Soothing Ocular Rosacea

FAQ

Can ocular rosacea be cured?

It is a chronic condition, but it can be managed very well to minimize symptoms and prevent damage.

What treatments do you offer for ocular rosacea?

There is no single treatment for ocular rosacea, but a personalized and multi-faceted approach that addresses both inflammation, eyelid health, and your personal triggers. At the CARE Clinic, our goal is to build a treatment plan that is tailored to provide you with lasting relief.

Depending on your case, our protocol may include:

Inflammation Treatment (The Core of Therapy):La Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is often our first line of treatment. It targets and closes the small, abnormal blood vessels on the eyelids, which significantly reduces redness and inflammation, while improving the function of the meibomian glands.
Management of the Glands and Eyelids:We make sure to unclog and stabilize your glands to improve the quality of your tears through treatments such as deep cleaning. ZEST, manual expression or assisted heat treatment iLux®.
Supportive Therapies:
- La Photobiomodulation (LLLT) can be used as a support to further decrease inflammation and pain.
- One targeted treatment of Demodex mites is put in place if they are identified as a cause of your inflammation.
Stabilization and Advice:We complete the plan with suitable lubricants, the installation of Meatic plugs if necessary, and personalized advice on managing triggers (such as sun protection) and coordinating with a dermatologist. For the most severe cases, regenerative options such as PRGF may be considered.

The exact combination of these treatments will depend on the results of your full assessment. It is this in-depth analysis that allows us to create the most effective protocol for you.
