To investigate the efficacy and safety of an intense pulsed light (IPL) combined IPL treatment protocol for meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)/dry eye disease (DED) with IPL applied directly to the eyelids, associated with meibomian gland (MG) expression for the treatment of chalazion.Retrospective case series study. Patients presenting with chalazion received a combined IPL therapy treatment consisting of using the usual IPL protocol for DGM/EOS using a fluence according to skin type according to Fitzpatrick, followed by a second phase (in the same session) of IPL application directly on the eyelids of both eyes using a fluence of 10J/cmTwenty-six chalazions from nineteen patients (24 eyes) with a mean age of 49.89±20.43 years were included. An average of 2.07±0.97 IPL sessions were required for chalazion resolution. The combined treatment of IPL protocol and GM expression showed 96.15% efficacy and no adverse effects were observed.Combined IPL treatment for MGD/DED with IPL applied directly onto the eyelids and MGX could be effective and safe for the management of chalazions. |
