While there are multiple choices available for treating MGD, Lipiflow is the only FDA-cleared device for removing gland blockages and restoring gland function. Through advances in the application of Vectored Thermal Pulsation technology, Lipiflow treatment utilizes a patented algorithm applying heat and massaging your inner eyelids to remove the obstructions in your meibomian glands. If the cause of your MGD is due to something else, your doctor might prescribe other medication to tackle the issue. For at-home remedies, warm compresses can be used to thin the secretions. Eyelid scrubs with baby shampoo or eyelid cleanser can also be used to attempt to massage out the blockages.
