Our Dry Eye Treatment Unsung Hero: The BRUDER Moist Heat Eye Compress

If you’ve hung out with us for a while, you’ll have read all about our amazing new Dry Eye treatment services, and the cool gadgets and gizmos we have in office to help relieve those desert-like eyeballs. Sometimes it’s not the big fancy equipment that should get all the accolades though, sometimes it’s the frequently used items in our daily routines that can make a biggest difference. Enter the BRUDER Moist Heat Eye Compress. These babies fly out of our office on the daily and work their magic to relieve sore, dry, tired eyes for our patients.

Our Optometrists prescribe these every day because they are clinically proven to help treat dry eye and blepharitis (inflammation of the eyelids) without using medication. The BRUDER Moist Heat Eye Compress helps clear oil glands and allows natural oils to infuse back into your tear layer to relieve ocular discomfort. The compress is so easy to use too, you simply microwave it for 20-25 seconds and then apply over eyes for 8-10 minutes or as prescribed by your optometrist. Ahhhh, relaxing!

The BRUDER Moist Heat Eye Compress works to improve how the oil glands in your eyes function and helps stabilize your tear film. The compress can also help to slow tear evaporation. When your eyes are properly hydrated and your tear layer is properly lubricated, your eyes are more efficient at purging bacteria and debris. When your eyes are functioning at their best then they feel comfortable, and you can see more clearly.

Even though the BRUDER Moist Heat Eye Compress is small, it sure is mighty! It is totally safe for frequent use. You do not need to add water, it self-hydrates. The BRUDER compress is anti-bacterial, non-allergenic, washable, and reusable. The BRUDER compress’ patented and unique pod design is made for comfort, a good fit around the eyes and to perform at relieving those uncomfortable peepers. To buy yourself a BRUDER mask click here!
