Menthol warm compress

[diydry]

Hi, this looks like a simple, cheap, and effective treatment protocol discovered by Japanese researchers (2017), and I was wondering if anybody has tried it.

"Effects of a warm compress containing menthol on the tear film in healthy subjects and dry eye patients."

I'm thinking about conducting my own little experiment, but since I use a Bruder-type eye mask I'm not sure how to apply the menthol.

And I wonder if there would be less improvement among those of us with LASIK who might have a dysfunctional afferent corneal nerve reflex arc?

This sounds interesting ! I’m also interested in finding out if it works !!
