Envision by InMode Dry Eye Treatment in Annapolis, MD
Target the root drivers behind dry eye symptoms—especially meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) and eyelid inflammation—using in-office technology designed for the delicate eye area.
If any of these sound familiar, a dry eye evaluation can help:
-
Burning, gritty, or tired eyes
-
Watery eyes (yes, watering can be dryness)
-
Red or irritated eyelids
-
Contact lens discomfort
-
Symptoms that return quickly after drops
Why drops often don’t solve it
Dry eye is often not “just a lack of tears.” In many patients, the tear film becomes unstable because the oil layer isn’t doing its job. That oil is produced by the meibomian glands along the eyelids. When those glands are blocked or inflamed, you can end up with irritation, tearing, and fluctuating vision—even if you’re using drops.
IPL for Eye Inflammation & Dry Eye Symptoms
Lumecca-I
Lumecca-I is a form of intense pulsed light (IPL) designed for the area around the eyes. For appropriate patients, IPL can reduce inflammatory drivers that contribute to dry eye symptoms and support healthier eyelid function.
Typical experience:
-
Non-surgical, in-office
-
Many patients describe it as quick and tolerable

Forma-I for meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) support
Forma-I uses gentle, controlled energy designed for delicate areas to support eyelid function and comfort in appropriate dry eye cases.
As a cosmetic bonus, we are also stimulating collagen and elastin production in the treatment area, which helps to address laxity and improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Forma-I can be used on any skin type and tone.

What happens at a Dry Eye Evaluation
Your first visit is about clarity—not guessing:
-
Symptoms and history review
-
Eyelid and tear film assessment
-
Determine whether IPL/RF is appropriate
-
Build a plan (home care and in-office series when needed)
How many sessions are typical?
Many treatment plans are performed as a series. The number of sessions depends on your symptoms, eyelids, and response—your evaluation determines the plan.
