Dry Eye Relief

Relief from dry eye symptoms comes from the fact that a moist heat compresses followed by expression and exfoliation adds moisture and eases the gritty feeling that comes with dry eye. A MBE treatment for dry eyes also improves the production of oily tears and other eye fluids by unblocking the meibomian glands which produce the oil that forms part of the tear film.

Reduces Swelling

The warmth of the compress applied helps in the drainage of built up and thickened oils caused by a modern lifestyle and eases the pain that results from the swelling in and around the eyes. The compress is followed by full gland expression using specialized equipment.

Improves Blood Circulation

Warm compresses help in improving blood circulation in the eyes. This makes the nutrients flow at a faster rate to improve eye health. An improved flow of nutrients to the eyes also helps in quicker healing of various eye conditions.

Cleanses the Eyes

Some eye conditions cause a discharge which results in flaky and scaly deposits especially around the lid margins and at the base of the eye lashes. Applying a warm and moist compress helps to dissolve the crusty deposits and keeps the eye area clean. Expression of oils after warm compression is critical in resetting the eyes lubrication infrastructure.

Manages Pain

A warm compress helps to relieve the pain associated with conditions such as conjunctivitis, styes and blepharitis. The warming compress also helps to relax sore tissues around the eyes and minimises the pain resulting from trauma, fatigue and inflammation.
