Dry Eye Treatment in West Michigan
When It Comes to Treating Dry Eye, You’ll See We Do It Better
At Rejuvenation Dry Eye Center, our office is stocked with the latest technology that we will use to screen your eyes for anything that may be contributing to your condition. Regardless of the factors behind your dry eye, we will identify the root cause and recommend a custom plan to help hydrate your eyes and provide you with long-term relief.
What Is Dry Eye Disease?
Dry eye disease develops when the tear ducts don’t produce enough tears, or the meibomian glands are obstructed, both resulting in an unstable tear film and the eyes losing proper lubrication. Usually, symptoms worsen over the course of the day, leading to redness, irritation, itchiness, and if left untreated, can lead to permanent damage to the eye itself. At Rejuvenation, we can alleviate these symptoms and treat their root causes so that you can experience comfort all day, every day.

- Extensive screen usage
- Contact lens use
- Meibomian gland dysfunction

Diagnosing Dry Eye at Rejuvenation
We have the most advanced dry eye diagnostic and treatment technology in the area, which our expert team will use to get an extremely precise scan of your eyes’ vision and health. By determining the source of your condition, our team will be able to craft a specialized treatment plan that both treats your dry eye and relieves you of your symptoms. The benefit of having so many treatment options, ranging from intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy to at-home remedies, is that we can adapt your treatment to your condition, preferences, and lifestyle.
Our Dry Eye Treatments
Customization is the key to our treatments. Each patient and case of dry eye is different, which is why we offer a wide range of at-home and in-office remedies. We will be at your side throughout the course of your treatment and will make sure that you’re able to get the relief you deserve.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)
IPL is a natural light-based therapy that focuses on reducing inflammation. Inflammation around the eyes can result in irritation, increased chance of infection, and abnormal blood vessel growth all which contribute to dry eye.
Radio Frequency (RF) Therapy
Radio Frequency (RF) treatment uses gentle, controlled heat to target and liquefy blockages in the meibomian glands — a common cause of dry eye disease. The thermal energy stimulates natural oil production and improves gland function, while also tightening the skin around the eyes.
Tixel® Treatment
Tixel® is a non-invasive treatment that delivers precise, natural thermal energy to the eyelids and surrounding skin. It helps open meibomian glands, stimulates collagen production, and rejuvenates the delicate tissue around the eyes. The result is improved tear stability, smoother skin, and relief from chronic dryness — all with minimal discomfort and downtime.
