What is BlephEx Treatment?
BlephEx® is a safe and effective in-office procedure designed to clean and exfoliate the edge of the eyelids, specifically targeting the area where bacterial biofilm, excess bacteria, and bacterial toxins tend to accumulate. This accumulation can lead to various eyelid symptoms, such as itching, redness, irritation, and dryness. By addressing these underlying causes, BlephEx® helps maintain clean and healthy eyelids. During the BlephEx® treatment, your doctor, who specializes in eye care, will use a medical-grade handheld device that gently and precisely exfoliates the base of the eyelashes and the eyelid margins. This exfoliation process effectively removes the accumulated debris, biofilm, and bacterial toxins from the eyelids, providing relief from symptoms associated with conditions like blepharitis and dry eye syndrome.
Is BlephEx FDA Approved?
Yes, BlephEx® is FDA approved as a doctor eyelid cleaning procedure. It is a recognized and trusted solution for maintaining eyelid hygiene and managing conditions related to eyelid inflammation, such as posterior blepharitis and anterior blepharitis. The FDA approval ensures that the BlephEx® treatment meets stringent standards for safety and efficacy, giving patients confidence in its use as a medical-grade solution for their eye care needs.
