Relief from Dry Eye Comes from 2-Minute Treatment with Tixel i

Knoxville, TN, November 19, 2024 / PR Newswire / Novoxel Inc. announces the U.S. FDA clearance of the Tixel i (pronounced “Tixel Eye”) for sale in the USA.

• The newest member of the Tixel family of products was cleared for application of localized heat and pressure for patients with Evaporative Dry Eye due to Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD).
• The multi-site clinical study demonstrated significant improvements in the objective scores (such as TBUT and MGS) and, possibly more importantly, a significant reduction in patient-reported symptoms (OSDI).
• Tixel® systems use proprietary Thermo-Mechanical Action (TMA®) instead of light or laser energy. Therefore, Tixel i can be used on all skin tones, all year round – even during summer.
• The proprietary TMA technology permits treatment of the glands in both the upper and lower eyelids to help improve delivery of lubricating oils to the eye surface.

SIMPLE RELIEF: Gregg J. Berdy M.D., F.A.C.S., an ophthalmologist in St. Louis, Missouri, said, “I was part of the clinical study, so I was excited to purchase the first Tixel i because my patients reported significant relief of their symptoms. Unlike other systems, the procedure is simple: anesthesia is not required, no coupling gel is needed, there are no complicated applicators, and there are no bright flashes of light. And, the Tixel i is simple and safe enough for my staff to perform the procedures. The upper and lower eyelids of both eyes can be treated in less than 2 minutes. Most patients say their eyes feel more watery during the actual treatment.”

LOCAL SUPPORT: Tixel i systems are manufactured in Germany and Israel, but the company has a direct presence in the USA. At the Tennessee facility, the Novoxel Inc. team handles all USA sales, marketing, and technical support for the entire Tixel family of products.
