About this trial
The purpose of this research study is to understand the mechanism of action of low level light therapy and also potentially yield markers associated with good treatment response. Low-level light therapy is light-based treatment delivered through advance eye-light device. This therapy uses light energy to provide energy to the meibomian gland cells to slow down age-ing, improve tear stability and reduce inflammation.
