Understanding RF Therapy for Dry Eyes

Dry eye syndrome can be a persistent and uncomfortable condition. At Eye Care Center LTD, we offer advanced Radiofrequency (RF) Therapy.  RF Therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that gently heats the eyelid area to stimulate oil glands, improve tear production, and reduce inflammation for long-term comfort.

Book your RF dry eye therapy consultation today and experience the relief you deserve!

Why Typical Dry Eye Treatments Fall Short

You may have tried artificial tears, prescription drops, warm compresses, or even punctal plugs. These all help—but for many, they only mask symptoms. They don’t always tackle the underlying reason you have dry eyes in the first place: poor oil gland function in your eyelids (aka meibomian gland dysfunction).

And that’s where radiofrequency (RF) therapy shines.

What Is Radiofrequency (RF) Therapy?

RF therapy is a gentle, non-surgical treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to warm the meibomian glands around your eyes. These glands produce the oils that help your tears stay on your eyes longer.

With RF, we’re not just treating symptoms—we’re restoring function.

It’s kind of like giving your eye’s oil glands a spa treatment: warming, relaxing, and encouraging them to work better again. Bonus: this treatment also tightens the skin around the eyes, so it’s a win-win for comfort and appearance.

Benefits of RF Therapy for Dry Eye Relief

RF Therapy uses controlled radiofrequency energy to warm the meibomian glands located in the eyelids. This heat loosens hardened oils that clog the glands, allowing them to function normally and produce the protective oil layer your eyes need. Treatments are comfortable, take around 15–20 minutes, and are usually performed in a series of sessions for optimal results.

  • Non-invasive & Comfortable – No needles, no scalpels. Just a warming sensation during treatment.
  • Targets the Root Cause – Unblocks and revives the meibomian glands.
  • Improves Skin Tone – Reduces fine lines and puffiness around the eyes.
  • Quick Sessions – Each session takes about 20 minutes, no downtime required.
  • Long-Lasting Results – Relief can last for several months after a treatment series.

RF Therapy vs. IPL: What’s the Difference?

We often get asked: how is RF different from IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)? Both help with dry eyes, but they work differently.
  • RF uses heat to gently stimulate and unblock oil glands.
  • IPL uses light pulses to reduce inflammation and kill bacteria on the eyelid margin.
Depending on your situation, we may recommend one, the other—or even both—for optimal results.

Had a wonderful experience at Eye Care Center
Nour, once again gave me great service. I've known and have had the pleasure of Nour's assistance for a couple of years now. She helped me pick out new frames for my glasses. Can't wait to see them when they are ready. Thanks again for all your help!

Would recommend Dr. Jenna Bacerra to anyone of all ages! Previous eye doctors at corporate chains rushed through my eye exam but Dr. Bacerra described everything with great attention. My time went past 5 because I had so many questions but my dr. and the sweet lady that helped me with my paperwork reassured me it was okay 🙂
Response from the owner 03:22 28 Aug 25
Thank you so much Laura for your wonderful recommendation! We’re thrilled to hear that Dr. Bacerra took the time to thoroughly explain everything and answer all your questions. Providing personalized, unhurried care is very important to us. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Dr. Bacerra and our team. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Customer Beware! This place is a total scam. They lie to you about your insurance to force you into paying a ton out of pocket and at the same time double bill your insurance for the same services that you just paid out of pocket.

Update:

I spoke to the owner. It was a great call. Definitely miscommunication which led to confusion and red flags. Eye Care center is not a scam. I remain a customer of Eye Care Center and look forward to continuing to use them for my eye care needs in the future.

Note: I have updated my rating from one star to four stars based on factors I believe justified my rating change.

My first visit to eyecare center was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, to the moment I left,care was outstanding. I'm a disabled veteran. I appreciate the time they took to explain everything to me. Although I received bad news, I left with a feeling of hope. Thank you!

The entire appointment was great. The office is located in a mall. Easy to find and plenty of parking. I was seen by the Med-tech as soon as we arrived. He was very kind and professional. As soon as the tech was finished his testing I went to see the DR. DR Albina was wonderful. He totally knew my vision situation and spoke to both my wife and I. It was a refreshing experience because he, in just a few minutes knew exactly what I have be dealing with for almost 40 years. He is going to stay in contact with me even though this was a one time visit set up by Veterans Evaluation Services. I highly recommend DR. Albina!
