Patients want to know just what it can do for their image, eyes, and why they should have it done. Below you will find the most frequently asked questions about the I-BRITE eye whitening treatment.

What is the I-BRITE Eye Whitening Treatment?

This is probably the most frequently asked question. And while the I-BRITE Eye Whitening Treatment is relatively new procedure within the past few years, it is yielding great results. In truth a similar procedure has been around for almost 30 years and it was changed to have a more effective results for fixing the yellowish, and/or brown spots in the whites of the eye. As well as the red veins we all despise so much.

The procedure takes about 15-20 minutes in each eye. It involves the removal of the membrane covering the white portion of the eye (sclera) and harboring the flaws in the whites of the eyes. Once removed the membrane repairs itself within 2 weeks and the replaced membrane is not damaged or flawed allowing you to have clear bright whites again.

Top Eye Care Tips for Winter

Friday, January 28th, 2011

Many of us think that we must only protect our eyes in the summer, but nothing could be farther from the truth. In the winter the air is generally cold and dry. This can cause drying or irritation of the eye. Our eyes need moisture to function and move properly. When they do not get enough they can cause redness, and become sore. Below are some eye tips you should remember when it gets cold or the air becomes dry.

Investing in a Humidifier- Often our eyes take a beating from the cold winter wind, or dry heat from indoors. Using a humidifier adds moisture to the air providing your eyes with the relief they need to maintain their moisture.

Using sunglasses all year around- It probably sounds funny to most people but the sunglasses protect the wind from getting to your eyes and drying them out in the first place. If you can do something as simple as remembering to put on a pair of sunglasses to help your eyes, wouldn’t you?

 

Switching from Contacts to glasses- This will help give your eyes a break. Constant use of contact lenses may dry your eyes out. Giving the contacts a break until your eyes feel a bit better and are more moisturized may help you in the long run.

Taking Flaxseed Oil Capsules- Recent research has shown taking 3000mg – 6000mg of Flaxseed oil capsules daily can help decrease dry eyes. Organic cold pressed Flaxseed Oil seems to have the best results.

Instill Artificial Tears- When your eyes feel dry and/or achy a simple solution can be to use artificial tears. There are many brands available in your local pharmacy eye care aisle. A preservative free verson can often provide good soothing relief.

While there are many preventative steps you can take to help prevent dry eyes, or irritation in the winter months there are also many treatments for dry eyes including the use of artificial tears which is the most common. Below are a few symptoms of Dry eyes.

Symptoms of Dry Eyes:

Sensitivity to light

Burning

Itching

Mucus in the eye (generally in strings or lines)

Excessive tearing

Eye fatigue

Redness

Irritation from smoke or wind

Monday, June 7th, 2010

The I-BRITE™ procedure is a no-stitch, no-graph conjunctiva removal procedure that whiten and brightens the eye by delicately removing excessive red veins, yellow growths, or areas of brown pigmentation.

The crystal clear, newly-regenerated conjunctiva makes patients’ eyes appear brighter and whiter than they can ever remember them being.
