The Blepha Eye Bag is an easy-to-use, microwavable warming eye mask that relieves symptoms of dry eye associated with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) which is a leading cause of dry eye, along with other related eye conditions such as Blepharitis, Stye, and Chalazion. The Blepha Eye Bag may also relieve discomfort related to contact lenses worn by patients suffering from dry eye.
Some benefits of the Blepha Eye bag include:

It’s also important to note that the eye bag is made from natural silk, cotton, and untreated flax (linseed), which means that it isn’t suitable for Vegans.

There are also a variety of other symptoms that the eye bag can alleviate, these include tired eyes, redness, bleary vision, dry eye, and many others. The bag is great for use in the morning when the eyes are tired and need a bit of help and even a night to relax your eyes and get yourself ready for bed. The eye bag is great for everyone and is best used in the winter when the eyes get colder and dryer. We also recommend using the Blepha Eye Bag after work or staring at a screen, the warming sensation helps to relieve the tension from the eyes and rehydrates them, alleviating the feeling of dry and tired eyes after a long day in the office.
What are some benefits of Flax for the eyes?
Flax, also known as common flax or linseed, is a flowering plant, Linum usitatissimum, in the family Linaceae. Flaxseed oil is high in omega-3 fatty acids. There is some evidence to show that omega-3 fatty acids might be beneficial for people with dry eyes. Omega-3 fatty acids might relieve dry eyes by increasing healthy tear production, reducing inflammation, and balancing hormones.
