Who’s a Good Candidate for Forma I?
You may be a great candidate if:
• You have dry, gritty, or burning eyes that don't improve with drops.
• You’ve been diagnosed with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).
• You’re producing enough tears, but they evaporate too quickly.
• You have early signs of gland atrophy or inflammation.
• You’re looking for a non-surgical, natural way to improve tear quality.
Not sure what’s causing your symptoms? Our team can assess your tear film and eyelid glands to determine the best next step for your care.
The Vicious Cycle of Inflammation
Dry Eye Disease (DED) is often driven by inflammation. Conditions like Ocular Rosacea cause abnormal blood vessels (telangiectasia) to form on the eyelids.
These vessels release inflammatory mediators that damage the Meibomian glands, leading to obstruction and tear evaporation.
To treat dry eye effectively, we must stop this inflammatory cycle.
Mechanism: Photothermolysis
Targeted Light Energy
Lumecca-I uses specific wavelengths of light that are selectively absorbed by two main targets (chromophores) in the skin:
• Hemoglobin: Found in red blood cells within abnormal vessels. Absorption causes coagulation and closure of these vessels.
• Melanin: Found in pigmented spots. Absorption breaks down pigment for clearer skin.
Targeted Medical Benefits
Stops Inflammation
• By closing abnormal blood vessels (telangiectasia), Lumecca-I cuts off the source of inflammatory mediators that degrade gland function.
Restores Oil Flow
• The thermal energy gently warms the eyelids, melting the thickened meibum (oil) in blocked glands, allowing it to flow freely.
Eradicates Demodex
• The intense light pulses are effective at reducing the population of Demodex mites and bacteria that infest the lash line.
The Aesthetic Advantage
• Lumecca-I is known as a "Photofacial" treatment. While treating the root cause of dry eye, patients receive significant cosmetic benefits.
• The treatment improves skin complexion, removes age spots (sun damage), reduces redness from rosacea, and stimulates collagen production for smoother, younger-looking skin.
Why Lumecca-I is Superior
Lumecca-I by Envision
• High Peak Power: 3x more energy efficiency.
• Faster Results: Complete photofacial results in 1-2 sessions.
• Optimized Design: Precision spot sizes for safe periorbital use.
Treatment Protocol
Protection : Opaque eye shields are placed to fully protect the eyes from the light.
Coupling: Cooling ultrasound gel is applied to the treatment area (cheek to temple).
Pulses: Light pulses are applied. Sensation is like a light snap of anelastic band.
Regimen: Typically 4 sessions spaced 3 weeks apart. Maintenance annually.
Safety & Candidates
Who is it for?
• Patients with Evaporative Dry Eye or MGD.
• Patients with Ocular Rosacea (red eyelids).
• Skin Types I-IV (Light to Medium/Olive skin).
• Anyone seeking aesthetic skin rejuvenation.
* Not recommended for very dark skin (Type V-VI) or patients on photosensitizing medications.
The Envision Difference
Lumecca-I bridges the gap between medical necessity and aesthetic desire.
By treating the root cause of inflammation with high-powered precision, it offers patients lasting relief from dry eye symptoms while delivering the radiant skin they love.
