Abstract

Intense pulsed light has a growing body of research supporting its use in skin rejuvenation, dermatologic conditions, as well as ocular rosacea, dry eyes and meibomian gland dysfunction. This paper will start with the conception of one protocol for treating dry eyes, blepharitis and styes using broad band light, a version of intense pulsed light, and its evolution into a life-changing in-office procedure for many patients. The approach for optimizing the settings, considerations during the consultation, the procedure in detail, after treatment care, and potential complications to avoid are all explained. Periocular and facial rejuvenation treatment protocols are discussed as well. This should be a useful guide for clinicians looking to add intense pulsed light to their in-office treatment armamentarium to significantly improve the lives of their patients.

用于面部年轻化、眼干、睑缘炎和眼泡的光疗法。
越来越多的研究支持将强脉冲光用于嫩肤、皮肤病以及眼部红斑痤疮、干眼症和睑板腺功能障碍。本文将从使用强脉冲光的一种--宽波段光治疗干眼症、睑缘炎和眼睑息肉的方案的构想开始,到它演变成改变许多患者生活的诊室程序。此外,还介绍了优化设置的方法、咨询时的注意事项、治疗过程的细节、治疗后的护理以及应避免的潜在并发症。此外,还讨论了眼周和面部年轻化治疗方案。对于希望将强脉冲光添加到诊室治疗设备中以显著改善患者生活的临床医生来说,这应该是一本有用的指南。
