How BlephEx Works

The revolutionary BlephEx equipment consists of a medical grade disposable micro-sponge soaked in a specialist gentle antibacterial lid which is spun precisely and carefully along the edge of your eyelids and lashes, removing scurf and debris and exfoliating your eyelids.

Itching or scratchy eyes Foreign body sensation Tearing Crusting Redness/inflammation The build-up of bio-matter around the eyelashes Dry eyes Eye rubbing

A 20 - 30 minute appointment is required on the first treatment but the procedure itself only takes approximately 10 minutes and is well tolerated. Most patients simply report a tickling sensation. After the procedure, you will be advised on how to maintain your lid hygiene between treatments.

“After the first treatment by Sam, my eyes felt

BlephEx will reduce or alleviate these chronic and debilitating symptoms. The treatment is typically repeated at regular intervals, usually every 6 months. By eliminating the inflammatory causes, the overall health of the eyelid is improved.

Your eyes can then begin to produce more of their own tears and enjoy a reduction in the chronic and irritating symptoms.
