The Bruder Moist Heat Eye Compress is a better option for those who suffer from the symptoms of MGD, and is also an effective treatment for Blepharitis and Chronic Dry Eye. This method proved to be messy, it could expose the lids to unsafe levels of heat at the start of treatment, and a washcloth doesn’t hold heat long enough for treatment to be effective. One of these treatments was the use of a warmed wet washcloth. In the past, there were few treatments options for the symptoms of MGD. MGD does not usually go away on its own, and requires treatment and follow up examinations by an eye care professional. Symptoms of MGD can include dryness, scratchiness, a burning sensation, and even problems with visual acuity. MGD is not generally sight threatening, but it can have a negative impact on quality of life if left untreated. This can cause a decrease in meibomian secretions, leading to an unstable tear film, inflammation and potential long-term damage to the glands and eyelid margins. As the glands continue to produce oil, this blockage can cause them to swell or become infected. If the oil layer is too thick, it can lead to a blockage of the narrow duct which takes the oil from the gland to the tear film. In most cases, this disruption occurs when the meibum or meibomian secretions becomes slightly thicker than normal. It disrupts the normal balance that exists between the three contributing layers that make up the tear film. Meibomian gland dysfunction, also called MGD, is a condition where the meibomian glands do not produce the proper quantity and/or quality of oil for the outer layer of the tear film. The Bruder Moist Heat Eye Compress with MediBeads is an effective and convenient solution for meibomian gland dysfunction, chronic dry eye disease and blepharitis.
