Patented electric heated dry eye mask helps relieve symptoms of: chronic dry eye, meibomian gland dysfunction, blepharitis, and styes. A well-functioning tear film is essential for the health and proper function of the ocular surface and to ensure ocular comfort and optimal vision. Poor tear quality can result in ocular surface damage, which can negatively affect vision, quality of life, as well as work productivity. Dry eye disease is a multifactorial disease, which may be aqueous-deficient and/or evaporative. It results in symptoms of ocular discomfort such as burning, foreign body sensation, pain, grittiness, itching, dryness, reduced or disturbed vision and instability of tear film. Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is defined as a chronic diffuse condition characterized by terminal duct obstruction, qualitative and quantitative changes in meibum, and symptoms including irritation, itching with subsequent lid rubbing, soreness, burning, and foreign body sensation. Meibomian glands, located in the upper and lower eyelids produce meibum, the oily secretion that forms the outermost layer of the tear film that reduces the evaporation of the tear film and contributes to ocular surface lubrication. Heat applied to the meibomian gland region has been found to enlarge the gland openings and to also thin out the oils inside the glands.
