Dry Eye: Causes and Common Symptoms
Dry eye is a common eye condition caused by a lack of high-quality tears or insufficient moisture and lubrication on the eye’s surface. Common symptoms of dry eye include:
- Persistent stinging or burning sensations
- Redness
- Sensitivity to light
- Blurred vision
- A feeling of grittiness in the eyes
Several factors can trigger this eye condition, such as:
- Environmental factors like dry or windy climates
- Autoimmune diseases
- Certain medications
- Hormonal changes caused by pregnancy, contraceptives, or menopause
- Indoor heating or air conditioning
- Prolonged screen time
- Meibomian gland dysfunction
The Main Cause of Dry Eye: Meibomian Gland Dysfunction
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is the primary culprit behind the discomfort and irritation associated with dry eye.
Tiny glands along the eyelid margins produce the crucial oil layer of the tear film that prevents evaporation.
When these glands become blocked or dysfunctional, the quality and quantity of the oil they secrete are compromised, leading to an imbalance in the tear composition. This imbalance results in faster evaporation of tears, leaving the eyes inadequately lubricated and prone to dryness.
Advanced dry eye therapies such as iLightPro and iProX can unclog blocked meibomian glands, allowing lubricating oils to flow into the tear film.
iLightPro: Your Ultimate Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) Solution

The wrap-around treatment head, equipped with five foldable arc pieces, allows for precise adjustments based on the specific needs of the treatment area. This ensures a tailored approach to MGD and dry eye discomfort.
