HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE The Eye Doctor® Premium?

Most patients should benefit from applying The Eye Doctor® Premium and performing eyelid massage (refer to Step 2 – eyelid massage procedure) twice a day for two weeks. This can be reduced to once a day and then a couple of times a week as required, once symptoms have been alleviated.

The Eye Doctor Premium can be reused as per instructions multiple times.

2. EYELID MASSAGE PROCEDURE

The objective of this procedure is to cleanse the melted oil from the glands in the eyelid.

It is important to massage correctly in order to remove secretions which have been softened by the heat of The Eye Doctor® Premium. With your eyes closed, massage the eyelids along the edges as described below. We recommend you use our detergent & preservative free Eye Doctor Lid Wipe or alternatively use a clean finger or clean tissue and apply firm pressure.

Always massage with your eyes closed. Pressure should be gentle but firm and massaging should not feel uncomfortable. Always use the pad of your index or middle finger to massage the edges of the eyelid. To avoid irritation do not over massage. 3-4 times along each eyelid should be sufficient at each session. After treatment you may experience some blurring in your vision. The blurriness will clear within a few minutes. If it does not clear within an hour, consult your doctor.

For the upper eyelid: Slide your finger in a downward fashion. This is to apply pressure from the eyebrow downwards to the eyelashes of the upper lid.

For the lower eyelid: Slide your finger upwards towards the eyelashes of your lower lid
