From last Friday, 9-6-17 until today Tuesday (13-6-17), the European Congress of Ophthalmology, one of the most important in our calendar of scientific events, has been held in Barcelona. During these days ophthalmologists from all over the world have gathered in our city, with the aim of sharing the latest advances, both in the campor diagnosis and treatment.

As far as we are concerned, this time we have focused mainly on the campor of Dry Eye, contributing our experience with IPL technology (Thermaeye). We have presented our results, with an improvement in almost 90% of cases, this treatment being more effective in patients with an inflammatory component which, on the other hand, all researchers consider to be the element key in dry eye and all the strategies to treat it go through controlling the inflammatory factor.

It seems that more and more ophthalmologists prefer to fight inflammation in the Dry Eye with more natural measures, such as physical methods, such as Pulsed light IPL, avoiding the overuse of drugs that, although very effective, their chronic use ends up causing intolerance or toxic effects.

It is worth highlighting the fact that Thermaeye is the only IPL equipment on the market that can be applied directly on the Eyelids and in all types of patients, which makes it possible to achieve better results, greater efficacy and greater safety, as has been made clear in the works that have been presented these days. These results have not gone unnoticed by entities such as the American Academy of Ophthalmology, which granted us an interview to be published on its website shortly.
