How Does Radiofrequency Treat Dry Eye Syndrome?
Radiofrequency (RF) treatment is a safe, modern, in-office procedure for treating dry eyes. At Dr. Bishop & Associates, we offer the Forma-I device for RF treatments.
RF treatments use radiofrequency energy to gently increase the skin temperature around your eyes, which helps open up clogged meibomian glands and improve oil flow. This, in turn, helps enhance tear film quality and alleviate dry eye symptoms.
RF treatments with the Forma-I device are noninvasive procedures that can help you get relief from dry eyes. Contact us to get started and schedule your appointment today.

Relieve Dry Eyes with Forma-I
Forma-I radiofrequency is a non-surgical procedure that uses bi-polar radio frequency technology to target wrinkles like crow’s feet and simultaneously treat dry eyes.
Treatments with Forma-I are designed to be like a warm massage for your eyes, enhancing blood circulation in the area. The treatment uses radiofrequency technology that can gently heat your meibomian glands to liquefy their oil and improve their function. As a result, Forma-I treatments can enhance your tear quality and reduce dry eye symptoms.

How Many Sessions Do You Need?
Treatment times and frequency can vary and are usually recommended based on what can provide lasting relief. Our team will discuss the number of sessions you need based on your personal needs.
