Eliminate red eyes, itchy eyes, and dry eyes with BlephEx
The First and Only Doctor Eyelid Cleaning Procedure to Help Maintain Clean and Healthy Lids. BlephEx® is a specialized procedure performed by our doctors to actively clean the margins of your eyelids. By safely and effectively removing bacteria and debris from the eyelid area, BlephEx® addresses the root causes of eyelid symptoms, providing long-lasting relief.
BlephEx addresses two common eye conditions: blepharitis and dry eyes. Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids, causing redness, itchiness, and a gritty sensation. Dry eyes, on the other hand, occur when your tear glands don't produce enough tears to keep your eyes adequately lubricated. Both conditions can be uncomfortable and affect your vision. However, with our specialized treatment, we offer a painless solution to alleviate the symptoms and promote healthier eyes
