Lid Hygiene Routine
for Dry Eyes
Daily cleaning of eyelid margins with diluted baby shampoo or lid wipes to remove debris and biofilm that block meibomian glands — a leading cause of evaporative dry eye.
How it works
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is the primary cause of evaporative dry eye. Clearing lid margin blockages improves the lipid layer of the tear film, reducing evaporation.
What to watch for
Must be done consistently — stopping causes relapse. Use products designed for the eye area or very diluted baby shampoo.
