About
TearScience, founded in 2005 and based in Morrisville, North Carolina, specializes in ophthalmic medical devices aimed at diagnosing and treating meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), a major cause of evaporative dry eye disease. Their flagship product, the LipiFlow Thermal Pulsation System, is FDA-cleared and utilizes proprietary Vectored Thermal Pulse Technology™ to apply controlled heat and pressure to unblock meibomian glands, enhancing lipid production and alleviating dry eye symptoms. In addition to LipiFlow, TearScience offers the LipiView Ocular Surface Interferometer, a diagnostic tool that measures the thickness of the tear film's lipid layer and visualizes gland structure. This device aids eye care professionals in diagnosing MGD and assessing patients for LipiFlow treatment. TearScience's products are utilized in over 250 locations worldwide, primarily by ophthalmologists, optometrists, and specialized eye care centers, providing advanced, drug-free solutions for dry eye disease.
