🌟 Say goodbye to dry eyes with a little warmth! 🌟
Did you know that applying heat can be a game changer for your meibomian glands? 🔥 Heat helps liquify the oil that gets clogged in these glands, which is essential for keeping your tears from evaporating. Without that oil, tears either run down your face or leave your eyes feeling parched.
While light pressure from blinking can usually help express this oil, if it’s too thick, your blink may not provide enough pressure to get it out. That’s where heat comes in!
Here are two effective ways to incorporate heat into your routine:
1. **Warm Compress**: Place a warm compress over both eyes for 10 minutes daily for soothing relief.
2. **Eye Roller**: Use an eye roller for more targeted treatment. Simply run the metal piece under warm water until it’s comfortably warm to the touch—remember, the skin around your eyes is delicate! Then roll along the lid margins, both upper and lower. The gentle rolling motion helps express the oil from the glands, enhancing comfort.
Keep those eyes hydrated this winter with heat! 💧👀
