Caution:If your microwave is greater than 1000w, you may need to reduce the time. How often should the EyeBag be used? Toyos R, Toyos M, Willcox J, Mulliniks H, Hoover J. Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of intense pulsed light treatment with meibomian gland expression of the upper eyelids for dry eye disease. Photobiomodulation Photomed Laser Surg. 2019;37(9):527–31.

These devices also soften the meibum to increase its release by applying moist heat to the eyelids. Although it remains unclear, it was hypothesized that moist warming devices might be less effective than dry warming devices because of the cooling that follows the rapid heat evaporation in the case of moist devices [ 27].

Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a chronic, diffuse abnormality of the meibomian glands (MG), characterized by terminal duct obstruction and changes in the glandular secretion. This anomaly may result in alterations of the tear film, symptoms of eye irritation, clinical inflammation, and ocular surface disease [ 1]. Its prevalence varies between 3.5% and 19.9% in the Caucasian population, while it reaches > 60% in the Asian population [ 2].

eyes of 22 MGD patients in each of three groups treated with a hot towel, EyeGiene, or Blephasteam twice daily (67.0±21.7, 57.7±22.7, and 69.7±22.6years, respectively)IPL plus MGX improved ocular symptoms (SPEED score) and TBUT as well as reduced the levels of inflammatory markers in tear fluid The intense pulsed light (IPL) devices are high-intensity, non-coherent, and non-laser light sources ranging from 500 to 1200 nm [ 61]. Patients are fitted with safety goggles covering both eyes during the treatment. The skin treatment area requires an ultrasound gel. Light pulses are applied into the cheek skin, near the lower eyelids. However, one study (I) evaluated the technique applying pulses directly into the upper eyelids [ 62]. A higher improvement in MG secretion function was found in the lower eyelids than in the upper eyelids. This was attributed to the smaller tear meniscus present in the upper eyelids, which contains fewer inflammatory proteins. Knop E, Knop N, Millar T, Obata H, Sullivan DA.

Put the closed container with the EyeBag inside, into the pre-heated oven at Gas mark 1 for 15 to 20 minutes. IPL plus MGX improved ocular symptoms (SPEED score), TFLLT, NIBUT, TBUT, lipid layer condition, lid margin abnormalities, corneal staining, and meibum grade compared with the control

Leave the EyeBag on the Radiator for half an hour turning and shaking form time to time to obtain even and thorough warming. IPL plus MGX improved ocular symptoms (SPEED score), TBUT, and meibum secretion relative to baseline; changes in MGYLS and TBUT were greater in the study eyes than in the control eyes, but changes in SPEED and corneal staining scores were similar Jiang X, Lv H, Song H et al.
