Treatment for MGD
A infrared device for warm compression was developed by the Japanese. I was wondering why it was not discussed in the forum, since the article is releases on 2002.

Does anyone has any idea about this product? Because it is an alternative from the current Blephasteam googles, which uses moist heat to make the oil glands flow again.
Thanks

Good grief, what a long article. I did not read it because it was too long. I'll let others go through and gather info and give their opinions.

However, you can bet that if anything was a cure or fix, we would all know about it by now. The article was written 8 years ago and apparently it isn't very well known. Lucy
