SUMMARY
In this educational webinar, Dr. Bruce Dornn, optometrist and dry eye specialist, presents his journey of building a dedicated dry eye practice and integrating InMode’s Envision platform. Drawing from decades of clinical experience in North America, he highlights why conventional approaches—like artificial tears, compresses, and topical drugs—often fail patients with meibomian gland dysfunction. Dr. Dornn emphasizes the paradigm shift toward procedural therapies such as radiofrequency and IPL, offering long-term relief, higher compliance, and improved quality of life compared to a lifetime of costly prescriptions.
TOPICS COVERED
- Prevalence and causes of dry eye, from blue light exposure to autoimmune disease and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).

- Complications of untreated dry eye, including blepharitis, Demodex infestations, and keratitis.
- Diagnostic methods: non-invasive tear breakup time, gland imaging, and baseline testing.
- Dr. Dornn’s treatment protocol combining Forma-I, Lumecca-I, and manual gland expression for consistent, measurable results.
