A Milestone Achievement! Dongguan Aier Eye Hospital Surpasses 3,000 Lipiflow Treatments, Leading the Way in Comprehensive Dry Eye Diagnosis and Treatment in Dongguan

Today, the ceremony to present the plaque commemorating over 3,000 Lipiflow treatments, along with a special public education event on dry eye, successfully concluded at the Dry Eye Center on the second floor of Dongguan Aier Eye Hospital. This event not only served as a testament to the hospital’s expertise in dry eye diagnosis and treatment but also highlighted Dongguan Aier’s leading role in the field, offering patients a professional and caring eye health experience.

A Moment of Glory! 3,000 Cases Set the Standard for Dry Eye Treatment

At the event, Zhang Shiyu, South China Sales Manager for Johnson & Johnson’s Dry Eye Division, presented Dongguan Aier Eye Hospital with the “Over 3,000 Lipiflow Treatments” honorary plaque on behalf of the manufacturer. Ye Jianzhang, Director of the Cornea and Ocular Surface Department, accepted this prestigious recognition on behalf of the hospital.

The 3,000 cases represent the genuine trust of thousands of dry eye patients and serve as solid proof of the hospital’s mature dry eye diagnosis and treatment capabilities. It is particularly worth noting that Dongguan Aier Eye Hospital is the only ophthalmic institution in Dongguan that owns and routinely performs Lipiflow meibomian gland thermal pulsation therapy. As the international gold standard for treating mild, moderate, and severe dry eye, this therapy requires no anesthesia, each session lasting 12–15 minutes. Through constant-temperature thermal activation combined with pulsed massage, it unblocks the meibomian glands at the source, effectively alleviating blockages. The results are long-lasting and comfortable, providing a definitive solution to the previously intractable problem of moderate to severe dry eye.

Health Education in Action! Director Ye Jianzhang Delivers an Informative Lecture, Debunking Common Misconceptions About Dry Eye

Following the certification ceremony, Director Ye Jianzhang delivered an informative presentation on dry eye, addressing common misconceptions about daily eye care: Many people believe that simply applying eye drops is enough to relieve dry eyes. In reality, dry eye syndrome has multiple subtypes, and over 80% of cases are caused by meibomian gland dysfunction. Using artificial tears alone provides only temporary relief and cannot cure the condition. Accurate diagnosis and targeted physical therapy are essential to address the root cause. Drawing on clinical cases, Director Ye explained the concepts in plain language, answered questions on the spot, and helped attendees clarify the correct scientific approach to treating dry eye.
