Temperature of warm compress

[Sheetal Dhillon]

Hi dear all. I have been diagnosed with anterior blepharitis and mgd. I have been adviced to do warm compresses twice a day followed by lid cleaning. What should be the temperature of the warm compress and for how long should I do it? I take filtered water in a big bowl, boil it to around 42 degree...

I'm still doing some sort of routine ketofall... fish oil.... warm compress or cold depends......

It's been another long while since I last posted. I did IPL last year to just have 7 seconds again, which is better than when I started. I've just kept up with omega eye fish oil, optimel, warm compress now and again and ketofall (ketoifien). I've been at university but it hasnt gone well and I'm due...

17yr old daughter just started Xiidra. Nervous because she doesn't do well with prescription anything & worried about safety since it is still so new. It cant harm meibomian glands or goblet cells, since it's not helping them the way Restasis does?Why does it burn so much and make vision blurry....

But as of next week: I have my first IPL session, first part of it is remeasuring my tear evaporation, volume, and looking at my meibomian...

Emailed my optician about when is the earliest I can get IPL, no responce as of yet but I also asked if allergies would lessen effect of IPL as I'm not sure if my new allergy eye drops (ketofall) are helping. It seems that once allergy is under control and still using fish oil im just a bit off what...

I’m about two years in to my dry eye sensation. I never experienced it until getting contacts (monthly ones). The best way to describe it is that my eyes feel as if I had fallen asleep in my contacts. Never red, sometimes slightly itchy, but more so just, my lids feel stuck to my eyeball.
