BlephEx®

BlephEx® is a painless, in-office eyelid cleaning procedure used for dry eye therapy by the doctors at Tucson Eye Care. BlephEx® uses a soft rotating medical grade micro-sponge along the edge of your eyelids and lashes to remove excess bacteria, biofilm and bacterial toxins, improving the overall health of the eyelid.

The procedure lasts approximately 6 – 8 minutes and will feel like a massage on your eyelids.
