What is eyelid therapy?

Your eyelids are essential for protecting your eyes, but they can sometimes develop conditions that cause discomfort.

One common condition is blepharitis. This can be caused by an infection, leading to itchy or sore eyelids that might even stick together. Another condition is Meibomian gland dysfunction, where the glands in your eyelids don’t produce enough oil. This oil is crucial because it prevents your tears from evaporating too quickly.

Both blepharitis and Meibomian gland dysfunction can contribute to dry eye syndrome. Thankfully, eyelid therapy can help. This treatment can relieve the symptoms of these conditions, ultimately reducing the occurrence of dry eyes.
