Tears play a critical role in lubricating, protecting, and nourishing our eyes. For those with Evaporative Dry Eye, blocked or deteriorating meibomian glands prevent a steady flow of protective oils, leading to quicker tear evaporation and uncomfortable irritation. Tixel i® treats meibomian gland dysfunction that leads to dry eye. Healthy glands help maintain your eye’s moisture balance for longer-lasting comfort.
