I just checked the temperature of my Aroma heating mask and just discovered that the highest temperature, advised for example by Dr Sandra Cremer, is really TOO HIGH: 140/ 60 celsius degrees !!
The middle t° 42,5 degrees, is enough
I checked on ChatGPT about the risks of overheating of Meibomian glands, and there are articles about that:
"Effects of Warm Compresses on Meibomian Gland Function in Eyes with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction." by Finis D, Hayajneh J, König C, et al. (published in The Ocular Surface journal in 2018)
"Effect of thermal pulsation treatment on meibomian gland function in meibomian gland dysfunction" by Jie Ma, Lingyi Liang, and Jinhua Bao (published in the International Journal of Ophthalmology in 2017)
So BE CAREFUL as it can do more harm than good !
